TWTD understands Town have received no bids for left-back Leif Davis this summer and will not be selling him during this transfer window.

Over the last few days, various reports have claimed the 25-year-old has been the subject of rebuffed offers from Premier League clubs, while Nottingham Forest were said to be lining up a bid, according to stories earlier today.

However, Town sources have told TWTD that the club has received no offers for the former Leeds man and will not sell Davis during this transfer window.

The one-time Morecambe trainee is contracted to the summer of 2028 and is a key member of Kieran McKenna’s team, while the player is happy at the club and not looking to move on. The links to Premier League clubs would appear to be purely agent led.

Newcastle-born Davis, who joined the Blues from Leeds in the summer of 2022 for £1.1 million, is currently the club’s only fit left-back with Conor Townsend almost certainly out for the season having suffered an ACL injury at Auxerre in last week’s final friendly.

Davis played the full 90 minutes in last night’s 1-1 draw at Birmingham having recovered from a hip problem.

Len_Brennan added 12:58 - Aug 9 I don't get how "the player is happy at the club and not looking to move on", but at the same time "the links to Premier League clubs would appear to be purely agent led". Surely the only agent with an interest in linking him to a PL move would be his own agent, working on behalf of him, with his knowledge & agreement to do so?

Tractorboy58 added 13:08 - Aug 9 I think if Hutchison, Broadhead and Davis want a move then shove them in the under 21s to train and use te vast amout of money to buy players who really want to be here. Surely with the Delap money and parachute payments we must have plenty left to get some quality in

blues1 added 13:23 - Aug 9 Tractorboy58. What are you on about? Where has anyone said Davis wants to leave? The other 2, yes, but until we've bought players in, we can't afford to have them playing in the u21s. Need them in the 1st team. As long as they give their all when they play. Would only do what u say if they clearly don't try when on the pitch.

Bluedocker added 13:37 - Aug 9 I would get Brandon Williams back everyone deserves another chance in life... but contract with clause if you mess around anymore its terminated... I've been following him and he looks in great shape and hungry again...

baxterbasics added 13:41 - Aug 9 Can we please hear the same about Hutch now, thanks.

Bazza8564 added 13:45 - Aug 9 Good news this. I know we are all disappointed with the showing last night, but put Jens and Jaden back in, add Akpom and it all looks a bit more balanced. We have business to do in the window though, and don't be surprised if Hackney still comes, theres no PL interest as yet, time will tell. With Omari and Nathan possibly set to leave, and no debt, theres plenty to look forward to

tetchris added 13:49 - Aug 9 There isn’t anywhere officially that says he doesn’t want to leave either. “Understanding” that town don’t want to sell and he is happy as town isn’t the same as the player coming out publicly and saying it himself, at this point it’s just conjecture. How do we know what conversations have taken place between Davis and his agent? Their conversations are private. Davis doesn’t need to convey to the fans whether he is happy at the club or not. He might be happy and not pushing for a move but if a PL club comes along and offers to treble your wages are you going to turn it down?

Tractorboy58 added 13:54 - Aug 9 Blues 1 what I am on about is having players in the squad that are not fully comitted - Hutchison and Broadhead for sure - OK maybe Davis is just speculation but last night and most of last season did not contribute much as a full back - we need this sorted before the end of August

OliveR16 added 14:57 - Aug 9 Tractorboy58 - that doesn't explain your comment at all. Delap was fully committed last year, both for himself and the club. You have no evidence that Broadhead and Hutchinson will not be fully committed if they stay. It is just trolling players who have done well for us and, as I'm sure you have done, keeping an eye on their own career and family plans too.

virginblue added 15:01 - Aug 9 Why would Leon come out and say he doesn’t want to go when there has been no offer. If he makes a comment then people will make a connection where there isn’t one.

virginblue added 15:01 - Aug 9 Or even Leif.

JewellintheTown added 16:04 - Aug 9 As far as I'm aware, agents main source of commission is either when a transfer gets happens or a contract negotiation, so it's in their interest to drum up business for one of those to happen to earn money. Some I believe get paid on a retainer.
