Interesting article http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/transfer-news-ten-championship-stars-1936028 Schmeichel, Austin and King are all on the list who we have been linked with, other than that none of those really stand out apart from Cresswell and possibly Hughes
Derby Fans reckon he'll go for about £8m minimum. Given he's still young, they rate him as the best payer to ever come through their academy. Apparently he ran midfield for them in the first half of the season before injury. I was impressed with him at Pride Park, he'll be a top player, no doubt.
With players like that, is it worth paying £8m for him then selling him on for 3 times that in the future if he does well? It's a hell of a punt but we all know how much the top 4 pay for U18 players that have played for their clubs first team. Remember when Liverpool and Everton were after Cairney?
Actually glad there are no Hull players in there, let them stay under the radar. We need to keep Aluko and Chester, both of which should have been in the list.
Derby ST holder I know has said the top 4 have watched him numerous times this season - Barcelona had him watched at a tournament too. He's probably one of the most impressive teenagers I have seen in this league. The last one to really impress was Gareth Bale for Southampton at the KC. He was miles better than Walcott when he came to the KC the year before.
