Speculation about Gleeson Continues

Speculation continues that Stephen Gleeson might go to Stockport on loan when his current loan spell ends at Edgar Street this week. The young midfielder first played for the Bulls against Shrewsbury on February 23rd.

Some pundits are suggesting that as Stockport's Welsh captain Ashley Williams may go out to either Cardiff or Swansea on loan with a view to a permanent deal before next season the League Two club would like to see Gleeson return to Edgeley Park for a second loan spell.

However another view is that Wolves are also interested in Birmingham born Williams and may be about to offer Gleeson to Stockport for the remainder of the season as a softner to obtain the signature of Williams.

All the above is no more than speculation. There is little doubt that Graham Turner would like to keep Gleeson until the end of the season. Hopefully he will be able to persuade Wolves manager Mick McCarthy to allow that to happen.

Williams is currently with the Welsh squad in Luxembourg and Gleeson with the Irish squad in Dublin.

What ever happens any deals must be completed by late Thursday.
