    BRISTOL CITY TRANSFER LATEST: Former Aston Villa man Nigel Reo-Coker being linked with Robins move.
    please log in to view this image


    FREE Agent Nigel Reo-Coker is being linked with a move to Lee Johnson's Bristol City.
    The Sunday People report that the former Aston Villa player is set to snub offers from China and Middle East and make a return to England.
    The Robins,
    who clinched an important 2-1 win over Ipswich on Saturday to get Johnson's reign as head coach off to a winning start, are still in the market for a defensive midfielder and Reo-Coker could be the missing link.
    The 31-year-old recently left MLS side Impact after having his contract terminated. He had made 27 apperances for the Canadian side.

    Because he's a free agent does he have to be classed as a loanee or can he just sign as normal?

    We can sign a free agent at any time can't we?? the windows only apply to players registered with clubs I believe.

    A man from the past who came with great promise and fanfare but never reached his potential. Not for me for many reasons, and his age and his many travels make me question his commitment.

    Not sure midfield is an area we need to worry about right now. We need a striker far more urgently than another midfielder.

    If he's free then I think we should get him, without Korey Smith (fingers crossed he gets to season end without injury) we could be ****ed and would rather have someone in the background to fill in if needed.
