The legendary former Wales captain then mentioned in July the group had made a second provide, whereas South African businessman Gary Otto was rumoured to be main a rival bid.
Dalman acknowledged their curiosity however questioned how critical that was.
“I assure you that each workforce that will get relegated will get approaches as a result of there are folks that they’re searching for worth purchases,” he mentioned.
“We all the time have approaches. Most of them are pathetic. A few of them have substance.
“After all, we had approaches, however that is not a bid. You’ll be shocked how low among the numbers have been when folks have rung up.
“For me to me to take anyone critically, I have to know who they’re of their entirety. I have to know proof of funds, ideally by a monetary establishment of some credibility. I have to know who their attorneys are, and I have to know who their accountants are. Till they provide me these 4 issues, I haven’t got a suggestion.”
Dalman has beforehand mentioned that Tan can be open to promoting on the proper value.
Cardiff’s worth can have dropped because of their relegation final season, and the proprietor would like to promote within the Championship or, ideally, again within the Premier League, the place they’ve spent two seasons throughout his 15 years in cost.

“It is possibly £50m should you stretch it. Let’s assume a Championship [club] is £100m, do you wish to promote it now? Within the Premier League it might be £400m.
“So it is completely different dynamics, however I feel you don’t want to promote an asset when it is all-time low.”
