# Cardiff eyeing loan move for Liverpool’s Clyne

Premier League side Cardiff City are considering a loan move for Liverpool right-back Nathaniel Clyne in the January transfer window, according to a report on [Wales Online](https://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/liverpool-nathaniel-clyne-cardiff-loan-15444006).

The full-back has not played a single minute of league action so far this season.

The England international has fallen down the pecking order with youngsters Trent Alexander-Arnold and Joe Gomez holding down first-team spots.

Cardiff are keen to strengthen their squad in January and they have reportedly identified Clyne as a target.

Jurgen Klopp is reportedly open to allowing the defender to leave on a loan deal which would see him gain valuable playing time in the top flight. The player himself is also understood to be ready to make a loan switch in the new year.

Centre-back Bruno Manga has been forced to deputise at right-back for Cardiff, with their preferred full-backs struggling for fitness.

Other clubs are also monitoring Clyne’s situation and there is expected to be a battle for his signature.
