Irish international David McGoldrick is being linked with a host of clubs in the last week of the January transfer window, and Ipswich Town may face a battle to hold on to their man in his fifth season with the Tractor Boys. What Are The Odds looks at the David McGoldrick next club odds via BetVictor bookmaker.
Championship promotion hopefuls Cardiff City are the current favourites to sign McGoldrick with pretty short odds of 2/1 (3.00). A report in Wales Online suggests that the Bluebirds have shifted their attention back to the Ipswich striker, after reportedly missing out on other targets such as Benik Afobe. Eight goals all season for Ipswich and over 20 appearances show his value to Ipswich and no doubt Neil Warnock would welcome such experience in Cardiff’s promotion push.
Birmingham City are the surprising close front runners with odds of 4/1 (5.00) - whether McGoldrick would consider dropping down in to a squad that is potentially on its way to relegation this season is another thing though. The positive thing for the Irishman is that the striker would likely be a key figure in Birmingham’s push towards survival.
Fulham are on a great run of form in the Championship and are considered at 6/1 (7.00) to sign David McGoldrick in the next week. No doubt teams like Fulham would benefit from another proven goalscorer in the Championship and the player himself is likely to fancy such a move to west London for a club top of the form table. Leeds United who are at the same odds as the Cottagers are also among the sides interested, but as a former Sheffield Wednesday player would the club faithful want to see the 31-year old striker run out as one of their own at Elland Road this season?
Speaking of the Owls they are also in this market with odds drifting out towards 8/1 (9.00), which suggests it’s not too likely under their new Dutch manager Jos Luhukay - it could be that since they are a former club it’s a logical link, but then again he did only appear four times whilst on-loan at Hillsborough.
What Are The Odds will monitor the developments of this David McGoldrick next club odds market over the coming days as clubs flurry to make late signings to boost promotion and survival hopes.
