Barry-Murphy says Cardiff close to new signing as first Championship win eludes them

Cardiff City manager Brian Barry-Murphy told BBC Sport Wales "fingers crossed something will happen soon" on transfers. The Bluebirds have made only two permanent signings this summer — goalkeeper Nathan Trott and attacker Jack Moylan — and are still waiting for their first Championship win since promotion from League One. Barry-Murphy dismissed reports linking Cardiff with Dutch midfielder Melle Meulensteen.
