Bristol City’s Championship rivals could lose striker to Wrexham as Sunderland face brutal £13m transfer blow
Bristol City have the chance to bring in some new players before the end of the January transfer window to bolster their ranks. They also have the opportunity to let some individuals head out the exit door should they wish to which would help free up space and funds in their squad.
The Robins are currently sat in 9th place in the Championship table and are in a strong position to make a push for the play-offs during the second-half of the season. They are only three points off the play-offs after 26 games.
Liam Manning’s men lost 2-1 at home to Wolves in the third round of the FA Cup last time out. Attacking midfielder Scott Twine was on the scoresheet for them at Ashton Gate but they weren’t able to find an equaliser.
Bristol City are back in action this weekend as they look to return to winning ways. They face an away trip to Coventry City to lock horns with Frank Lampard’s side. In the meantime, transfer rumours continue to swirl across the second tier as teams aim to acquire some new talent. With that in mind, here is a look at some of the latest news…
Sheffield Wednesday striker Michael Smith wanted by Wrexham
Sheffield Wednesday striker Michael Smith is on the radar of Wrexham, according to The Star. The Owls are level on points with Bristol City in the league as they eye a place in the top six as well.
Smith, who is 33-years-old, is out of contract at the end of this season and he is due to become a free agent as things stand. He has been with the Yorkshire club since joining them in 2022 and he has since scored 30 goals in 111 games in all competitions.
The forward is an experienced operator in the Football League and has played over 550 games. He has had spells in the past with the likes of Charlton Athletic, Swindon Town and Rotherham United.
