Although they made a big-money signing in 2020 when they landed Fabio Silva, he has yet to be seen as a starting player this season, leaving Moore as a perfect player for Wolves.<\/p>\n<h3>Impressive<\/h3>\n<p>Twenty-nine-year-old Moore scored 20 goals for former Wolves boss Mick McCarthy in the 2020\/21 season for Cardiff and also caught the eye at the delayed Euro 2020 tournament. Cardiff will not be keen to sell their striker but they also have to face the issue that he is nearly 30 years of age and his transfer value is decreasing so they may be tempted to cash in for financial reasons.<\/p>\n<p>Wolves are chasing a \u00a37 million deal for Moore but Cardiff want more than that with the player having two years left on his contract and will be pushing for the fee they want before letting him leave. They will not be letting him leave on the cheap.<\/p>\n<h3>Realistic<\/h3>\n<p>McCarthy is realistic as he has always been and told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.molineux.news\/transfer-news\/mick-mccarthy-has-had-chat-with-different-class-kieffer-moore-amid-wolves-links\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">molineux.news<\/a> that he understands if the player wants to take his chance in the Premier League: \u201cLook let\u2019s be clear about it, if Kieffer gets a chance to play in the Premier League, he will want to do it. If he doesn\u2019t there\u2019ll be something wrong. If that (move) happens, I would be absolutely devastated for me, the fans and the club. But I\u2019d be delighted for him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It will now all come down to all parties being happy with the deal.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Main Photo<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"zluW7vhMShF-u_dZqtiJ7w\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.co.uk\/detail\/1233410978\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'zluW7vhMShF-u_dZqtiJ7w',sig:'eX_FJkeOWiWcqsZHN1t_3xY2r7DH5-ClGjrB5I0fN8M=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1233410978',caption: true ,tld:'co.uk',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cardiff City striker Kieffer Moore is a late deadline day target for Wolverhampton Wanderers, with talks reported to be ongoing for the Wales international, according to The Telegraph\u2019s John Percy.
