Oh Boyd, City have offer accepted for striker

SPL team Kilmarnock have accepted a bid from Cardiff City for top scorer Kris Boyd. The 22 year old striker will come to Cardiff to discuss personal terms prior to a medical.

Boyd has scored 3 goals in 4 SPL games so far this season and boasts an impressive 52 SPL goals in 92 starts for Kilmarnock. In one game last September he scored all five as Killie beat Dundee Utd 5 - 2.

Speaking to the Kilmarnock Official Website boss Jim Jeffries said

"I had a long chat with Kris and his father over the Cardiff bid and our increased two year offer. It became clear Kris wants a new challenge and feels going to play in England will enhance his game and I respect that. He's a great lad and has been a good player for us and he goes with the Club's best wishes.

" We were keen to hold on to Kris and knocked back the bids from Aberdeen, but being realistic, once an offer came in that met our valuation there was very little chance that Kris would remain a Kilmarnock player as he could have gone for nothing next summer."
