Sources: Fulham, Millwall, Luton and Peterborough chase Motherwell midfielder Campbell
Fulham, Millwall, Luton and Peterborough are chasing soon-to-be free agent Motherwell midfielder Allan Campbell, Football Insider understands.
The quartet are all keen to strengthen their squads ahead of next season’s Championship campaign.
A recruitment source has told Football Insider that Campbell, 22, has made up his mind to quit Fir Park after rejecting their latest contract offer ahead of his current deal expiring.
Motherwell will be entitled to compensation for their academy product.
He joined the club aged 10 and made his senior debut in October 2016.
Since then, Campbell has made 160 appearances for the Well and proved to be a key player during the club’s last four SPFL campaigns.
The midfielder signed a new four-year deal in 2017 with those terms soon to expire.
He has signed a fresh contract since but it was Campbell’s terms that were improved, rather than the length of the deal.
On 11th May, Motherwell boss Graham Alexander confirmed Campbell would be leaving the club at the end of the season.
He admitted, despite extended talks, the midfielder “will be leaving in the summer”. [Daily Record]
During the 2017/18 season, Campbell played in both domestic cup finals as his side lost 2-0 to Celtic on both occasions.
The defensive midfielder isn’t a stranger to finding the back of the net, scoring 16 goals during his Motherwell career.
The Well finished eighth in the league during the recently-concluded season.
Fulham were relegated from the Premier League last season after being promoted via the playoffs the previous year.
Fulham, Millwall, Luton and Peterborough are all gearing up for next season’s Championship campaign ahead of the transfer window opening.
