Manchester City’s Academy striker Liam Delap has attracted interest from Premier League clubs, with bids being accepted by the transfer officials at the club. Delap returned from a successful loan spell at Hull City but faces tough competition in the attacking department at Manchester City, leading to a likely permanent exit.
According to BBC Sport, both Ipswich Town and Southampton have had bids accepted for Delap, with the potential transfer fee rising to £20 million. Ipswich are reportedly leading the race for Delap’s signature, with a medical scheduled for Wednesday. Manchester City have agreed similar deals with both Ipswich and Southampton, leaving the final decision on Delap’s destination up to the player himself.
