Town are being linked with a move for Burnley left winger Wilson Odobert.

The 19-year-old joined the Clarets last summer and made 27 starts and six substitute appearances, scoring four times and was viewed as one of the Lancastrians’ successes, despite their relegation.

And according to Football Insider, those performances have attracted the Blues, who are considering a move for the 6ft tall wideman.

Odebert, who is contracted until the summer of 2028, came through the youth systems at USF Trilport and Paris Saint-Germain before joining Troyes where he made his breakthrough in senior football and after only one season got his move to Turf Moor.

Meaux-born Odebert, who can also operate on the right and in the middle, has won caps with France with their U16, U18, U19, U20, U21 and Olympic teams.

Town, who have already signed keeper Aro Muric from Burnley this summer, are on the lookout for a left-sided winger having missed out on Hull City’s Jaden Philogene, who rejoined his former club Aston Villa earlier this month.

Steve_ITFC_Sweden added 13:57 - Jul 28 Another player who could no doubt develop under K McK's wing. Certainly seems to have a pedigree.

leagueonescum added 16:39 - Jul 28 @Freddysteady He can play across the midfield. Also he's got some height which we lack in that area for the first balls. I've never heard of him either but we have to trust the scouting processes.

cranky_old_tractor added 16:48 - Jul 28 Getting linked with a lot of players - hopefully some of these come in soon. How about Whitacker and Cooper from Plymouth? Up the Towen

Fat_Boy_Tim added 16:59 - Jul 28 @Freaddysteady 1 - This hasn't come from the club 2 - The club can work on more than one transfer at a time 3 - Just saying another part of the field every time some random links us to a player doesn't move the debate on. It would make sense if the club had issued a statement saying we are actively NOT seeking another midfielder, but they clearly are.

bigbluetractor added 17:13 - Jul 28 Bluebullet - judging by this and your previous comments, doing a bit of research before you contribute would serve you well. "Never heard of him" is a pretty dumb thing to say repeatedly. Google is your friend.

trevski_s added 17:28 - Jul 28 I know this is just a rumoured link at the moment, but who cares if you have never heard of them. There are 1000s of talented football players and im sure you aint heard of them all. Who had heard of the likes of Mings, Cresswell, Taricco, Wilnis, McGreal, Counago (I could list so many more) before we signed them? And they turned out pretty good. Trust McKenna, trust the team, trust the system

gosblue added 18:55 - Jul 28 Dear Mr Chairman of Everyteam FC, if we were interested in your left winger how much would you want for him. Breaking news - Ipswich linked with Everyteam left winger Jack Clarke, Wilson Odobert, Jeremy Sarmiento etc., etc., etc. The list must be endless.

Len_Brennan added 20:58 - Jul 28 Younger than Omari, but with a decent Premier League campaign under his belt already, in a poor side; sounds like someone we should be interested in alright, but surely the price would be £25m or more, notwithstanding their relegation.

KiwiBlue2 added 01:58 - Jul 29 Sounds ideal with potential to develop given his age and the coaching we can provide. Depends on price I would guess but certainly sounds good ....

Linkboy13 added 09:06 - Jul 29 Yes atty couldn't agree more Morsy is playing like two men in midfield and at 32 he needs someone with an engine beside him otherwise he might be burn't out by Christmas. We saw last season we struggled when he wasn't in the team. I think Jack Taylor has potential but we need to start seeing it.
