Southampton Fc are interested in Oxford’s Tyler Goodrham
Earlier this week, Football League World exclusively reported that Coventry are one of several clubs chasing a summer move for Oxford United’s Tyler Goodrham.
However, with Middlesbrough and Southampton both also keen on the youngster, the Sky Blues look set to face a battle with some of their divisional rivals for Goodrham’s services.
Although he typically operates on the left of the midfield for Oxford, the 21-year-old is extremely versatile and has been used almost everywhere in the attacking half of the pitch by Gary Rowett this term.
The U’s are in a relatively strong position where Goodrham’s future is concerned, even though several clubs are circling around him at present.
The youngster penned a new long-term contract at the club following their promotion to the Championship last summer, meaning Oxford are well-placed to command a significant fee for one of their key men.
Coventry City can now begin working on preparations for next season, after they were knocked out of the Championship play-offs at the semi-final stage by Sunderland on Tuesday night.
After taking the lead on the night and levelling up the tie, the Sky Blues ultimately fell to defeat in agonising fashion, as Dan Ballard headed home the winner deep into stoppage time of extra-time to send the Black Cats to Wembley.
Nevertheless, it has still been a hugely positive season for Frank Lampard’s side.
While it may have ended in another play-off heartbreak, there is plenty of reason for optimism surrounding the club heading into next season.
The Midlands outfit will require quality rather than quantity in the transfer market this summer, if they are to compete at the top end of the table again next year. They have already been linked with a player who could prove to be an excellent signing.
