Cardiff City boss Malky Mackay has insisted he will be taking the necessary steps to ensure a successful return to the top flight.
The Bluebirds secured their promotion to the Premier League with Tuesday’s goalless draw with Charlton and Mackay is already looking to the future.
Cardiff owner Vincent Tan has promised £25m to spend on new players in the summer and Mackay has insisted he will put sentiment aside and do what he feels is best for the club.
“I’ve had to be ruthless from the very first day I came here,” said Mackay.
“What we are doing is for the good of the football club. You have to realise life changes and situations change and you have to go with change.
“If you don’t then you’re left behind. But that’s not just me, that’s throughout football.
“In end-of-season games, everybody’s playing for something, whether you’re in contract or going out of contract.
“You’re trying to impress every time you walk over the white line so the players know they’ve got to be playing well to be part of something here next year, which is very exciting.”
