Cardiff City have been told to slap a £10m price tag on West Ham transfer target Yousef Salech. The Bluebirds finished 2nd in League One with 82 points from 42 games, earning promotion to the Championship.
What's the situation with Yousef Salech?
Yousef Salech scored 15 goals in all competitions last season, making him a key player for Cardiff City. West Ham are interested in signing the 24-year-old Dane, but Cardiff City fan pundit Matt Hall believes Salech is worth at least £10m.
The Bluebirds' recent form has been DWDDL, with their last result being a 5-4 loss to Mansfield Town on 2026-05-02.
How will this affect Cardiff City's transfer plans?
Cardiff City will face Forest Green away on 2026-07-25 in their next fixture. With West Ham also linked to Dylan Lawlor and Rubin Colwill, Matt Hall is not worried about the interest in Salech, citing the player's new contract and adoration from the fans.
