Cardiff City manager Malky Mackay’s agent has admitted that the manager could be sacked by the club.
According to The Guardian, Mackay had attended a meeting with the board to talk about the direction of the club, especially after Malky Mackay’s head of recruitment Iain Moody was dismissed. What was more frustrating for Mackay was that Moody was replaced by Alisher Apsalyamov, a 23-year-old friend of the Vincent Tan’s son – a man with no prior experience in football.
The manager’s agent said, “Iain was a crucial member of Malky’s team and for anyone who knows Malky or has come into contact with him, he is a tremendous character in every respect.
When asked whether Mackay would resign, he said, “There is absolutely no prospect of Malky resigning from a job that he loves, a job he’s ensconced in. No – absolutely, categorically not. That’s not something Malky is contemplating,”
“Malky loves being at Cardiff City, has started a job there and feels that he’s been given the opportunity to be the architect in some respects of a new Cardiff City.
“But football is a precarious business and Malky’s decision to stay might not be matched by all the powers that be deciding that he should stay, so that’s pretty much in the hands of other people.”
Cardiff City are currently 14th in the table with just two wins from seven games.
