Is Cardiff City’s Kenwyne Jones the target man Vancouver Whitecaps FC have been looking for?
Cardiff City’s out of favour striker and target man Kenwyne Jones has apparently played his last game for the club and is in advanced talks with “a foreign club”. Could that club be the Vancouver Whitecaps of the MLS? Cardiff City is of course current Whitecap Robert Earnshaw’s former club and the Whitecaps have a number of ties to the club. Jones is apparently a close friend of former Whitecaps Centre Back Carlyle Mitchell, who is now playing for former Whitecaps Coach Martin Rennie in Korea. Jones has been rumoured to be on the move to the MLS previously (with Columbus Crew being the rumoured destination). If a deal was to come to fruition, it is rumoured that there would be very little (if any) transfer fee. It should be noted that Cardiff City and the Whitecaps already have experience doing deals as Cardiff City was Kenny Miller’s former club before he transferred to the Whitecaps in 2012. With both Robbo and Earnshaw being in the UK at this time, could Jones, a Trinidad and Tobago International, be the big target man that Robbo has been coveting?
