Bristol City CEO Richard Gould has revealed that the club have rejected offers for "four or five" of their players and, while not confirming their identities, has indicated Alex Scott and Antoine Semenyo are two of them but the club are in no rush or have an obligation to sell anyone.
City’s star duo have been the subject of intense transfer speculation so far in this window and manager Nigel Pearson has weekly had to address the situation. On Thursday, he insisted there had been no new bids for any of his players but speaking on BBC Radio Bristol, Gould offered a wider picture of the situation with just over two weeks of the window remaining.
Bournemouth, Burnley and Crystal Palace have been linked with Semenyo, while attention on Scott is even wider with the Cherries, Wolves, Tottenham Hotspur, Leeds United, Brighton & Hove Albion and Leicester City all seemingly in the picture.
