Kieffer Moore to undergo Bournemouth medical ahead of £5m switch from Cardiff City

Cardiff City striker Kieffer Moore is set to undergo a medical at Bournemouth ahead of a transfer which could net the Bluebirds as much as £5m, WalesOnline has been told.

The Wales forward has been out of action for the Bluebirds since injuring his ankle against the Cherries on December 30, leading speculation to grow over the player's future in the Welsh capital.

Bournemouth have been interested in the forward for most of the January window, with Cardiff keeping tight lipped over any potential move.

But the Bluebirds have been in the market for forwards all window, too, potentially readying themselves for a deadline-day scenario in which Moore leaves the club.

And that is now the case, with Moore already en route to the south coast for his medical ahead of a move which, with add-ons, could be worth as much as £5m.

Cardiff brought in Jordan Hugill on Saturday, an experienced striker which almost acts like a slight insurance policy in the eventuality Moore departed.

Hugill scored on debut in the 2-1 win over Nottingham Forest on Sunday before saying he would relish the chance of playing alongside Moore - a partnership Cardiff fans will now never see.

Whether Cardiff will dip into the market again to replace Moore on Monday remains to be seen, with Hugill, Max Watters, James Collins, Mark Harris and Isaak Davies the forward options now at Steve Morison's disposal.

Moore scored 20 goals in his debut campaign with the club, prompting interest from Wolves on transfer deadline day back in the summer, however Cardiff rebuffed the Premier League side's advances.
