Kasper Schmeichel's initial lon period is due to end after City's next two matches, the three day double header against Ipswich and Leicester.

City are in talks with Man City to extend the loan spell of the already popular keeper.

"We'd love Kasper to stay," said Jones, while Schmeichel says: "I need games and Cardiff City have offered me the chance.

"I'm excited to be here and I would be happy to stay longer."

If City could secure a second month it would see Kapser at the club for the opening 7 games in December ending with the trip to Watford on Dec 26th.
