The move was revealed by Swansea City Chairman Huw Jenkins although from his comments it seems unlikely to happen because of a difference in valuation between the two clubs – Cardiff are reported to want around \u00a33m for Bothroyd who is also attracting interest from Aston Villa.<\/span><\/p>\n

Speaking to the Western Mail regards the bold move, Jenkins said \u201cWe have spoken to Dave Jones about the possibility of signing Jay<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe were interested in a number of\u00a0strikers\u00a0and that was one conversation we had.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cHe is not a player that is within our price range, though. Cardiff\u2019s valuation for Jay is miles out from where we put ours.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThat is where things stand at the moment. We couldn\u2019t come anywhere near Cardiff\u2019s valuation.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt is not a disappointment, though. It\u2019s fine for us, no concern whatsoever.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cFans might not be sure at first, but, if he was a hit here, his time at Cardiff wouldn\u2019t matter.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe have gone past that and I\u2019m sure Cardiff have as well.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIf they wanted to take one of our players and he did well for them, like certain other players have over the years, there are no issues whatsoever. Just look at Alan Curtis.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cJay is the type of player we are looking at. Whether you look at the Championship, above or below, you want a player that suits what we believe is right for our formation and Jay is one of them.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe are interested in tidy players.People will obviously be more interested in this one because he is a Cardiff player.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
