Bristol City ‘fend off interest’ from rivals for midfielder as Man Utd ‘eye’ Middlesbrough man

A look at all the latest Championship transfer news, including the latest at Ashton Gate as Nigel Pearson looks to improve his squad.

Bristol City are already preparing for next season as they look to put the current campaign behind them.

The Robins finished firmly in the bottom half, and that’s something Nigel Pearson will want to avoid going into next term.

City have already wrapped up one new signing this summer, adding Mark Sykes from Oxford United, but more fresh faces are required.

Exits are also expected, with Pearson likely to lead something of a squad overhaul after the disappointments of this term.

It’s going to be a busy summer for the former Leicester and Hull City boss, and that should excite Robins fans.

Supporters will be as desparate as Pearson to see improvements having had to put up with some very poor performances in the season just gone.

And the pressure is on after the club’s first bottom-half finish in four years, following two mid-table and one eighth-place finish.

In the meantime, we have rounded up the latest transfer news from across the Championship, including Bristol City.

And as you can see below, the Robins have already had to fend off interest from Severnside rivals Cardiff City for one of their players.
