The Crystal Palace midfielder, Jordon Mutch, could make a surprise return to Cardiff City in January, according to Sky Sports (December 5 liveblog, 12:14).

Mutch is due back at Palace after a year on loan to Vancouver Whitecaps, who it is claimed have declined to take up their option of a permanent transfer.

And with little more than six months left on his contract, the 27-year-old may be on the move again in 2019.

Mutch spent two seasons at Cardiff earlier in the decade, the first of which ended in promotion to the Premier League.

Mutch has played 40 times for Palace in total, but not since March 2017 competitively.
