The reported fee is a staggering 1.2M for the young striker, though Neil Warnock has made it no secret that he is a fan of Jerome.
Jerome was born in Huddersfield on 14 October 1986 and has chosen Wales has his nationality. He started off with Middlesbrough but failed to make an appearance for the North East club.
Trials at Huddersfield Town and Sheffield Wednesday proved unsuccessful until Cardiff City gave Jermone the chance. He rewarded the Bluebirds with seven goals during the 2004-05 season and so far this season has found 13 goals, including a brace during the 3-1 win at Hillsbrough.
