Cardiff City will be hoping they can add to their squad during the summer, as they prepare for another season in the Championship. 

Mick McCarthy's side finished eighth in the second tier standings last term, as they narrowly missed out on a top-six finish, much to the frustration of some of the club's supporters.

But there were plenty of reasons to be optimistic that the club are heading in the right direction under McCarthy's management moving forwards.

Football Insider have reported that the Bluebirds have agreed a deal to sign Wolves youngster Ryan Giles.

Any potential agreement is reportedly set to be a season-long loan deal, with the Premier League side keen to find Giles regular game time in the Championship next season.

The midfielder made 48 appearances in all competitions for the League One outfit last term, and chipped in with two goals and two assists, which doesn't make for the worst of reading from a defensive midfielder.
