Soccer:Republic of Ireland forward Andy Keogh is set to join Cardiff City on a season-long loan from Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Wolves manager Mick McCarthy confirmed that a deal is imminent and paid tribute to the striker.
“It's a racing certainty that Andy will be going to Cardiff. Andy has been fabulous here both for me and this football club. It's a good move for him to go to Cardiff and good luck to him.
"He wants to play football and doesn't want to be fourth in line here which I can fully understand.
"It was my decision to let him go but he goes with our best wishes and warmest regards.”
Keogh scored 23 times in his 129 appearances for the Midlands club and joins Craig Bellamy in a much changed Cardiff City attack.
Keogh has been included in Giovanni Trapattoni’s squad for the European Championship qualifiers against Armenia and Andorra on September 3rd and 7th respectively.
