HARRY Arter revealed his desire to turn his loan spell at Cardiff into a permanent move if the Bluebirds stay in the Premier League.
The Republic of Ireland international is on a season-long loan from Cherries and has been a regular fixture in the Cardiff midfield under Neil Warnock.
The Welsh outfit are in the bottom three ahead of Friday's home game against Wolves (8pm).
But Arter has become a fans' favourite in the Welsh capital for his enthusiasm, energy and commitment to the cause.
"Playing Premier League football is all I want to do," said Arter, who signed a four-year contract with Cherries in July 2017.
"That's something I feel I've worked very hard for in my career and not something I want to give up very easily.
"I'm 29 next month and I know if I step out of the Premier League it might be hard to get back there.
"I've said to my family already the dream season would be Cardiff to stay up, the manager to stay on and then hopefully I can sign because I've loved every minute of being here.
"Fingers crossed, it stays this good for me and we can sit down after the 38th game with us having stayed up and looking to stay here permanently."
