Cardiff City boss Russell Slade has played down speculation linking the club with former West Ham United captain Kevin Nolan.
The midfielder, 33, left the Hammers by mutual consent on Thursday following a four-year spell at Upton Park.
When asked if Nolan was close to joining Cardiff, Slade told reporters: "Not that I know of. I think Kevin Nolan is a very good player, but there are lots of very good players that have been put our way as possibilities but they have to fit in. They have to fit in with what we're trying to do both financially and from a playing side."
Cardiff are in Championship action tomorrow when they face Nottingham Forest at the City Ground.
