Coventry news as Callum O’Hare contract admission made amid Rangers and Celtic links.

Carlton Palmer believes Coventry City star Callum O’Hare wants to leave his options open until the end of the season amid ties to Rangers and Celtic.

Speaking to Football League World on Wednesday (6 March), the analyst stated the 25-year-old has had a “outstanding season” for the English Championship club and that he’s unlikely to sign a new deal before his contract expires in the summer.

He said that the English attacking midfielder, who the Daily Mail believes is being monitored by both Old Firm clubs, is likely to be playing his football somewhere next season unless the Sky Blues achieve promotion to the Premier League.

“One player who has been attracting a lot of attention is Callum O’Hare,” said Palmer. “Three La Liga clubs are looking at him. Celtic and Rangers are reportedly said to be keen on the 25-year-old aswell.

“He’s yet to sign a new contract at Coventry and his current deal is set to expire in the summer. He’s had a terrific season, and it’s highly improbable now, with so few games left, that he’ll sign a new deal.

“He’s scored nine goals in his last 15 games. He’s been bang in form, and it’s a shame that they haven’t been able to hold him down, but I understand why they didn’t. He’s a player who has endured a lot with injuries.

“He was offered a new contract, and a good contract at that, but he wants to keep his options open at the end of the season. Unless they are promoted to the Premier League, I feel that it’s more than likely that Callum O’Hare will play his football in pastures new come next season.”
