Burke Wings Into Cardiff

It is now widely reported that Rangers wideman Chris Burke flew into Cardiff Airport this morning with a medical underway and personal terms to be agreed with City aiming to complete a £150,000 transfer later today.

Burke was identified as one of several players Rangers wished to release in a failing season. As the 25 year old earns £12,000 a weekly and played just 2 x 30 minute substitute outings all this season, you can understand why. However he is talented, holds 2 Scottish caps, is seen by City as an ideal replacement for Wayne Routledge and with Dave Jones vastly improving both Jay Bothroyd and Mark Kennedy this season, he will be looking to achieve the same here.
