Town have turned down a £350,000 offer from Blackpool for striker Jason Scotland. TWTD was first to report the Tangerines’ interest in the Trinidad and Tobago international frontman earlier today.
Blackpool appear likely to make further overtures for the 32-year-old, who Coventry, Birmingham and Middlesbrough are also believed to be eyeing, before the transfer window closes at 11pm on Wednesday.
Scotland, who has a year left on his Blues contract having signed from Wigan for £750,000 a year ago, had dropped down the Town pecking order, but scored one and created another after coming on as a sub during Saturday’s 2-1 victory over Leeds. The former Swansea man is currently understood to be back home in Trinidad.
We were going to pay like £350k for Le Fondre anyway weren't we? And now we are better off!
Although with Parkin we don't really need another striker (unless juke goes)... we should be looking at midfield now. Plus this whole Jason Scotland thing was crap to start with.
