After a fine season for Coventry City, Ben Sheaf is attracting plenty of transfer interest heading into the summer window.
With Gus Hamer and Viktor Gyokeres having been sold for big fees last summer, the Englishman looks as though he could be next in line for a big deal away from the CBS Arena.
This comes after some great form in the Championship, but particularly some excellent performances against the likes of Wolves and Manchester United in the FA Cup quarter-finals and semi-finals respectively, in which Sheaf more than held his own and showcased his talent to a national audience.
Now, with Coventry having failed to reach the play-offs, and therefore not getting a shot at promotion to the Premier League, the pressure could be on the Sky Blues to keep hold of their midfielder.
Three clubs have been linked with Sheaf so far this summer, two of which will be playing their football in the Premier League next season.
According to Alan Nixon via Patreon, both Fulham and Ipswich are interested in Sheaf heading into the summer.
Nixon claims that Ipswich Town are looking to bolster their squad after winning promotion to the top-flight, and that Fulham’s chief scout recently watched Sheaf, although does stress he is one of several being considered at the West London club.
