Man Utd pair Zaha and Fabio, Stoke's Jones set for Cardiff

Cardiff City are on the verge of completing the transfers of a trio of players.

Manchester United duo Wilfried Zaha and Fabio as well as Stoke City striker Kenwyne Jones are expected to finalise moves to the Welsh club early this week.

The trio underwent medicals at St George's Park on Sunday and manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is looking forward to having the three players at his disposal.

"Fabio and Kenwyne will join training today so that's more or less done," he told Sky Sports.

"Zaha is not completed so we cannot confirm that but we hope to get that done in the next 24 hours so we can be ready for the weekend, but you never know with all the ins and outs, but I think that's me completed."

Fabio will join on a permanent deal for an undisclosed fee, Zaha will spend the rest of the season on loan while Jones arrives as part of a swap deal which sees Peter Odemwingie head to Stoke.
