Stoke City and Birmingham City are the latest two clubs reported to be keen on Blues striker Kayden Jackson.
Last month, it emerged that the 26-year-old had rebuffed Town’s offer of improved terms with Championship clubs said to be eyeing him.
As previously reported, Blackburn Rovers showed interest in January, while newly-reported Coventry City had been linked along with League One Peterborough United, who came close to signing him prior to his move to Portman Road.
Now Football Insider claim Birmingham and Stoke are both showing interest in the Bradford-born frontman, who joined the Blues from Accrington Stanley for £1.6 million in the summer of 2018.
Jackson, Town’s joint-top scorer on 11 in 2019/20 alongside James Norwood, is currently contracted until the summer of 2021 with the club having an option for a further season so there is currently no urgent need to tie him down to extended terms, while there seems little scope to do so at present given the limits of the salary cap.
Despite turning down the new deal, the striker is understood to be happy at the club and in no hurry to move on.
Similarly, Town owner Marcus Evans is understood to have no plans to sell any of the club’s prized assets this summer, while the constraints of the salary cap would make it difficult for the Blues to sign a replacement.
