Not sure how accurate these are, they are figures from Cardiff City 2021 Wages | Player & Team totals - https://salarysport.com/football/sky-bet-championship/cardiff-city/

If they're genuine then anyone that thinks Kieffer wouldn't be interested in a move to Wolves might have to think again on that.

Alex Smithies: £33,000-a-week

SalarySport has goalkeeper Smithies down as the Bluebirds’ highest earner on £33,000-a-week. The 31-year-old joined the club in 2018 from QPR and has played 79 times in the process, keeping 19 clean sheets along the way.

As per Transfermarkt, Smithies is valued at £900,000.


Leandro Bacuna: £27,000-a-week

Versatile midfielder Leandro Bacuna is in his third full season at the City City Stadium after signing from Reading on deadline day in the 2019 January transfer window. The Curacao international has scored once in 13 games this season, taking him to 113 appearances for the Bluebirds.

Transfermarkt has Bacuna’s market value down as £1.98m.


Joe Ralls: £25,000-a-week

Aldershot-born midfielder Ralls is closing in on 300 appearances for Cardiff City since making his way through the club’s youth ranks. He has been through plenty of ups and downs in his time with the club, netting 31 goals and providing 26 assists in the process.

Ralls’ market value stands at £2.25m on Transfermarkt.


Sean Morrison: £23,000-a-week

Another long-serving entry to the list is current club captain Sean Morrison, who joined from Reading back in August 2014. Like Ralls, Morrison is also closing in on 300 games for the club, making 290 appearances for the Bluebirds across all competitions.

According to Transfermarkt, the 30-year-old is valued at £3.15m.


Aden Flint: £18,000-a-week

Experienced centre-back Aden Flint has been a mainstay in Cardiff’s side since returning from a loan spell with Sheffield Wednesday last January. He has played in all but one Championship game this season, taking him to 71 appearances since arriving from Middlesbrough in 2019.

Transfermarkt values Flint at £1.35m

I would say those figures are pretty much correct. I’ve seen very similar figures banded about for the senior players over the last couple of years. Bacuna’s wage is criminal for a player of his standard.

I would have thought morrison would have been on more than bacuna and smithies. Did he not sign a new contract the season we went up to Premier league. Bacuna's wages are criminal. And i am begining to think the whole deal that brought him to the club and the warnock link is questionable. If his value really is worth 1.9 million i would move him on asap. Utter garbage footballer, whose body language tells me he is just 'here for the money'. The only good thing about him is the song/chant we have for him.

I've heard rumours about Warnock and financial impropriety which I believe to be true. I don't think Bacuna is as bad as some make out but to pay him so much on such a long contract when he couldn't get in Reading's team suggests to me something corrupt may have happened

My thoughts exactly on the NW thing and i have heard the rumours too. But i am on the Bacuna is crap train i am afraid, he either cannot be arsed or just does not have the quality. He has been here a few seasons and i cannot recall a game where i thought he had really pit a shift in, apart from his debut as a sub against southampton where he looked calm and controlled for the 20 or so minutes he was on the pitch.

There was a run of games where I thought he showed some quality, desire, fitness and pace - think it was the first time he played in the advanced midfield position. Generally speaking he's been pretty average which suggests he has been half arsing it a bit.

He's lucky he wasn't at the club in 2014/15 he would've been one of the first to have his contract paid up.

Bacuna’s not worth 27 grand a year, let alone a week.

I think if you play in the first team you should all be on the same wage, the difference between say bacuna and pack is just ridiculous, I think it just breeds resentment

Missed about 4 or 5 very good scoring chances too this season. Value of 1.98 million is a joke. City ned to exploit that and ship him out asap. Maybe that is why he is being picked; to put hi in the shop window.

I think the £2m valuation is a joke and think he's been poor all season. There is a half decent player in there if used properly and in a balanced midfield.

Most of the top earners out of contract end of the season, ( 7 out of top 10) if they stay it’ll be on much smaller wages, ( some of the discrepancies are frightening) so hopefully there will be some budget to play with especially with 3-4 youngsters coming through. There will be some massive bargains out there if there is some investment as most clubs will be in the same - skint- boat

Bacuna is the odd one out though. He’s set to become by far our biggest earner and there’s no way anyone will come in for him on that money and his performance level.

Bacuna came from reading who are equally stupid when it comes to finances. Didn’t he leave villa after a big falling out with fans booing him?
