The Championship transfer window is in full swing, so join Planet Sport as we pick through Tuesday’s transfer rumours.

With four weeks left until the 2024/25 Championship season begins, the transfer window is in full swing and the rumour mill is in overdrive.

Join Planet Sport as we run bring you Tuesday morning’s transfer gossip.

Jayden Bogle to Leeds United

Sheffield United knocked back an initial bid from Leeds United, thought to be in the region of £4 million. The second, a similar fee with more cash offered upfront, was also rejected.

Jayden Bogle has informed the Blades he will not be signing a new contract, meaning his departure is increasingly likely.

Birmingham target Cardiff midfielder

Birmingham City are interested in Cardiff City midfielder Andy Rinomhota, according to fresh reports.

Rinomhota made three appearances for the Bluebirds last campaign and was deemed surplus to requirements as he joined Rotherham United on loan in January.

Blackburn Rovers hunt German striker

BILD is reporting that Erik Engelhardt, a 26-year-old German striker who scored 32 goals for BFL Osnabruck in Bundesliga 2 last season, is a target.

Main man Sammie Szomodics scored 27 of their 60-goal haul last term and will need replacing with a move away from Ewood Park in the works.

Derby County sign Ebou Adams

Derby County are closing in on one of their priority transfer targets as midfield Ebou Adams, who spent last season on loan at the Rams, is set to sign a three-year deal.

Adams made 17 appearances during the second half of County’s League One promotion campaign.

Hull City plotting ambitious double swoop

Hull City are reportedly chasing the signatures of West Bromwich Albion’s Okay Yokuslu and Crystal Palace’s Jesurun Rak-Sakyi.

They could face competition from Sunderland, who attempted to sign him on loan last summer. However, the talented youngster remained in London.

Bristol City raid QPR for striker

Queens Park Rangers recently tied talented youngster Sinclair Armstrong down to a longer contract, but it looks as if that was just to allow them to cash in on his departure.

Bristol City are seen as the frontrunner despite links to Crystal Palace and Celtic in the past.

Middlesbrough guard against Van den Berg interest

Belgian side Anderlecht, who will compete in the Europa League next season, are said to be interested in Middlesbrough’s Rav van den Berg.

The versatile 20-year-old shone last season as he captured the Player of the Year award. Fresh reports on Tuesday say Boro have offered him a new contract with improved terms.

Bolton Wanderers want Luton Town striker

Bolton Wanderers are looking to secure attacking reinforcements after failing to fire their way back to the Championship, with John McAtee high on their wish list.

McAtee scored 12 goals in 42 games while on loan at Barnsley last season.
