Birmingham City starlet Rico Browne is wanted by Manchester United at the end of this campaign according to a report by Football Insider. The 19-year-old centre-back is out of contract at the end of June and the Blues could face a battle to keep hold of him when it expires. The Blues are only a couple of places away from Bristol City in the table.

Burnley eye goalkeeper

Burnley are being linked with a transfer swoop for Brondby goalkeeper Mads Hermansen, as per TipsBladet, and the stopper is also believed to be on the radar of Premier League teams such as Everton and Fulham. The Clarets’ number one is currently Arijanet Muric but he could do with some competition ahead of the next campaign.

Millwall want agreement

Millwall have opened contract talks with defender Jake Cooper, as per a report by the South London Press. The 28-year-old has entered the final 18 months of his deal with the Lions and they are keen to keep hold of him for longer.
