Bristol City boss Liam Manning in squad depth admission as Sunderland and Sheffield United ‘race’ for striker

Wolves defeated Bristol City 2-1 at home this past weekend in the FA Cup’s third round. At Ashton Gate, the Robins lost despite a free-kick from Scott Twine. In the upcoming weeks, they have the opportunity to strengthen their ranks with a few newcomers. In light of that, let’s take a look at some of the most recent rumors and news circulating the Championship right now.

As Bristol City gets ready for the remainder of the season, manager Liam Manning has stated that the squad’s depth is “important.” “The depth (of the squad) is important,” he said on their official club YouTube channel following their loss to Wolves. For some freshness, we realized we needed to make the necessary adjustments. The guys who joined the team made a positive impression because we have a busy week ahead of us. In my opinion, it is now necessary to absorb all of the lessons learned today, work hard this week, and prepare to try to build on some positive league outcomes.

To strengthen their roster, the Robins have till the conclusion of the January transfer window to add some new players. Additionally, they have the chance to let some players leave. Reporter Alan Nixon claims on his Patreon page that Sheffield United and Sunderland are in the “race” to sign Leicester City striker Tom Cannon this month. The attacker’s future with the Potters is now uncertain, however he is currently on loan at Stoke City. The 22-year-old Cannon has now scored 11 goals in 25 outings across all competitions this season. Under their previous manager, Enzo Maresca, he assisted his parent team in winning promotion to the Premier League the previous season.”Stoke City is a huge club, with an exciting young team, and I’m absolutely delighted to be joining,” he remarked after relocating to the Bet365 Stadium in August.
