A small but stocky utility forward discovered by Coventry in Scottish junior football, Brian gained one Under 23 cap while playing in successful tandem with Colin Stein at Highfield Road, and cost City a six-figure transfer fee.
In two seasons as a Filbert Street regular, however, he failed to reproduce his previously prolific scoring form, and looked uncomfartable when layed wide on the right.
He eventually faded from the scene during the disastrous 1977/78 relegation season, joining a nine-man-transfer and loan exodus in the transatlantic NASL, where he settled for four summer seasons
Leicester City target changes agents as Foxes remain most concrete option – Transfer idea building
Leicester City remain the most concrete option to sign Ajax’s Steven Bergwijn this summer, with the player changing his agent as speculation continues.
Soccer News cover the situation around Bergwijn today and how he’s swapped to agent Ali Dursun and dropped previous representative Nathan van Kooperen.
They explain that the change of agent could be seen as a sign that Bergwijn is set to leave Ajax this summer, and it is hard to ignore that it may be a signal.
The 26-year-old has been linked with a move away for some time, and Leicester are currently the most concrete option for him.
Ajax would be open to the sale as they could receive a nice transfer sum to help their books and remove a big earner from them in the same move.
A change of agent could be a sign that the player is now pushing to make a move happen, with a change in representative often leading to a change of club not long after.
Dursun has been heavily involved in deals to the Premier League in the past, although Manchester United’s Victor Lindelöf is currently his most high-profile client in England.
He also represents the likes of Frenkie de Jong, Viktor Gyökeres and Denis Zakari and now seems to have been tasked with getting Bergwijn a transfer, or at least exploring the possibility.
That could open the door for Leicester, who remain at the front of the queue for the Dutch winger at this moment in time.
