Some Championship rumours and idle speculation: Leicester are closing in on Inter midfielder Stefano Sensi. Leeds are reportedly keen on out-of-favour Everton defender Ben Godfrey, and are battling Southampton for Burnley winger Manuel Benson, with Ipswich and Birmingham also keen.

Can't see it, looks a similar type of player to the likes of Hutchinson and Sarmiento. |  |

A possibility a few weeks back, but as you say with Magic Jeremy now on board, unlikely. | | | |

Unless we're seriously struggling getting someone in up top and Broadhead may be used as a striker for the rest of the season. |  |

Maybe suggests that Broadhead going to be used as a 9 and we are struggling on 2 strikers so having a rejig |  |

Think Benson's been 'on the list' for pretty much every club at the top end of the Championship since the window opened.
As others have said if there's anything in it suggests we're having a serious think about using Broadhead as a 9 with more tricky attacking midfielders behind him. The 2nd half the other night gave some credence to it as a decent idea to be fair, even it's not what we'd want to do ideally. |  |

I always thought Chris Kiwomya was nicknamed Benson (no idea why) but there is no evidence of this on the internet so maybe i had a weird dream once. |  |

I think you’re right but I don’t recall why he was called that. Someone from a TV show? |  |

And 'Lino' because he kept trying to do overhead kicks in training when John Lyall first showed up. Definitely Benson as well but no idea why.

Quality player but if Leeds and Southampton are battling out we just can't compete. We are well stocked in his position. | |
