The Cardiff City keep, sell or loan survey as one man's future to dominate Bluebirds' summer

Cardiff City have been busy already this summer.

Three senior players have been brought in by manager Mick McCarthy, with James Collins, Mark McGuinness and Ryan Wintle all now Bluebirds.

The trio will go straight into the first-team squad to provide much-needed competition ahead of the 2021/22 campaign.

Three youngsters were also added to the age-grade ranks this week, with six new contracts also handed out, with the club really making the youth pathway a priority right now.

McCarthy will no doubt be eyeing further additions to bolster his options but there will have to be decisions made over those currently in situ too.

As usual, there will be plenty of debate over the futures of some in the squad - who should be kept, who should be shown the door and who would benefit from game-time elsewhere next term on loan.

As such, we have put together an interactive survey for you to have your say.

A decision will likely have to be made over the goalkeepers, with Alex Smithies and Dillon Phillips both too good to be second in the pecking order.

The Bluebirds are now well stocked at centre-back but McCarthy may find it difficult to keep all his defenders happy. Could one or two be moved on, maybe temporarily?

In midfield, could Will Vaulks be on the move this summer? Newcastle United and Norwich City have expressed an interest; at £7million, should Cardiff cash in on the Welshman?

And does Lee Tomlin have a future at the club under McCarthy? He missed the majority of the campaign through injury and will find game-time difficult to come by next term with the emergence of Rubin Colwill.

Up front, McCarthy must decide on what to do with Isaac Vassell, Mark Harris and Max Watters next term, with all likely to play third fiddle to Kieffer Moore and Collins.

Moore's future is likely to dominate the conversation after the Euros, with his stellar showings likely to attract interest. Dare Cardiff contemplate selling their star striker?

Fill out the survey above and join the debate in the comments section below.
