Three Bids for Hoskins - Ipswich Town News
Rotherham chairman Denis Coleman says his club have already received three bids for striker Will Hoskins during the two-day-old transfer window. Town are one of a host of clubs to have watched the 20-year-old in action.
Coleman said: "We've had two official bids now for Will, both in excess of £500,000, both have been turned down, and we've just got a third offer in this morning. I'll look at that later on."
The Millers have not revealed the clubs involved with Town, Celtic, Sheffield United, Hull City, Watford, Everton, Reading, Wolves and Nottingham Forest all linked in recent months.
Hoskins is out of contract at the end of the season and has refused the offer of a new deal at Millmoor. The Millers are understood to want around £600,000 for their prize asset.
