Liverpool defender Nathaniel Clyne is reportedly on the radar of Cardiff City, Fulham and Leicester City.

According to The Mirror, Cardiff City are confident of signing Nathaniel Clyne on loan from Liverpool in the January transfer window.

It has been reported that Fulham and Leicester City are also interested in securing the services of the 27-year-old right-back.

Cardiff manager Neil Warnock is confident of bringing the former Crystal Palace and Southampton defender to the Cardiff City Stadium next month on loan, according to the report.

The Mirror has claimed that Warnock thinks his previous work with Clyne at Palace will give him the edge over Fulham and Leicester.

Leaving Liverpool

Clyne has struggled to play regularly for Liverpool in recent years and is not as important to the Merseyside outfit as he was when he joined the Reds from Southampton in the summer of 2015 for a transfer fee reported by The Mirror to be worth £12.5 million.

Leaving Liverpool in January to play regularly does make sense for Clyne, but the right-back will also be leaving a club who could win the Premier League and the Champions League this season.
