Nevertheless, it appears that the team is already preparing for life without him as his contract is slated to expire at the end of the current campaign.
In the previous month, Collins was free to start negotiating terms with other teams, and it’s likely that he’ll be trying to sign a new contract somewhere else.

Collins has not been a member of Cardiff City’s squad since his final game in late November 2024.
Collins might still have choices because certain countries, including Turkey and the MLS, have open transfer windows.
