Cardiff City manager Neil Warnock has criticised the British Government’s handling of Brexit negotiations and admits he cannot wait to get out of the European Union.Asked whether the UK’s exit from the EU – due to formally occur on March 29 – will harm the chances of Premier League clubs buying players from abroad, Warnock launched an attack on Prime Minister Theresa May’s failure to deliver on the 2016 referendum result.Cardiff have since released a statement to distance themselves from Warnock’s ‘personal political stance’.
1"I think we'll be far better out of the bloody thing. In every aspect. To hell with the rest of the world."To @CardiffCityFC manager Neil Warnock, Brexit means Brexit. pic.twitter.com/EVJoZsImeX— Sky Sports Premier League (@SkySportsPL) January 13, 2019Warnock’s comments might raise eyebrows at Cardiff, both at boardroom level and in the dressing room.Cardiff are owned by Malaysian businessman Vincent Tan and chief executive Ken Choo is also from that country, while chairman Mehmet Dalman was born in Cyprus.Warnock also has a cosmopolitan dressing room with Canada, Denmark, Gabon, Iceland, the Ivory Coast, the Philippines, the Republic of Ireland and Spain represented in his squad, as well as players drawn from the home nations.The 70-year-old has been frustrated in attempts to sign foreign players during the January transfer window, with Cardiff confirming bids have been made for Nantes striker Emiliano Sala and Nice midfielder Adrien Tameze. “We’ve got three main targets now,” Warnock said.“But we thought we had a midfielder (Tameze) signed last week and that fell through.“I don’t think you can say anything until they’re actually sat in your office signing the papers.“Agents get a sniff elsewhere, with better deals. That’s the job we’re in at the minute.”Cardiff released a statement on Monday distancing themselves from Warnock’s comments.“Comments made by our manager following Saturday’s fixture are representative of his personal political stance,” it read. “These comments do not reflect the political position of Cardiff City Football Club, nor its board of directors. Cardiff City FC will be making no further comment on the matter.”
