Colchester have already rejected a £300,000 bid for the 21-year-old who is out of contract in the summer and yet to agree new terms. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-3423862/Transfer-news-LIVE-Arsenal-Liverpool-Manchester-United-news-plus-Premier-League-rest-Europe.html http://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2016/01/30/report-bristol-city-plot-improved-bid-for-colchester-midfielder/
Not sure we need him now as we have beefed up the numbers, we need a striker, or even 2. If there is money left then maybe go for this guy, but not at the expense of getting a decent striker in.
Watched their game against Spurs yesterday and didn't see anything special about this guy,at 400K what can we expect. The commentator said that many pundits expect Alex to be playing Premiership football soon although clearly not at City.
