Championship Sides Interested in Kieffer Moore
Bournemouth is open to the idea of selling Kieffer Moore this month, attracting interest from several Championship clubs. The 31-year-old Wales international has been underutilized by Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola, with only one start this season.
Moore's Expected Departure
With Dominic Solanke as the preferred center-forward at Bournemouth, it is expected that Moore will leave the club in January. However, his wages of approximately £40,000 per week make a loan move to the Championship more likely.
Cardiff Leads the Race
Cardiff, who sold Moore to Bournemouth in 2022, is reportedly the most interested in securing his signature. Middlesbrough is also showing tentative interest, particularly in strengthening their defense.
Competition from Leeds, Ipswich, West Brom, Birmingham, and Sunderland
Leeds, Ipswich, West Brom, Birmingham, and Sunderland are all keen on adding a new forward in the winter transfer window and are likely to be aware of Moore's situation. However, Ipswich may prioritize pursuing Jay Stansfield, potentially cutting short his loan at St Andrew's.

Moore's Career Path
Moore has played at various levels, working his way up from non-league football with clubs like Forest Green, Barnsley, Wigan, and Torquay. Since joining Bournemouth, he has scored nine goals in 43 appearances. Meanwhile, Solanke has already scored 12 times in the Premier League this season.
Possible Replacement for Moore
If Moore departs, Bournemouth may look to the transfer market to find a suitable replacement for him.
