It looks like things are going to get worse before they get better at Huddersfield Town. If they are to get better at all.
An unconvincing 1-0 win against fellow strugglers Preston North End on Tuesday night – the decisive goal bundled into his own net by Sepp Van den Berg – is unlikely to dispel the dark clouds hanging over the John Smith’s Stadium.
And, according to The Sun, Juninho Bacuna could be heading out the door too, with Rangers expected to firm up their interest after spending the best part of 12 months scouting a player Ross Wilson greatly admires.
While it is never a good idea to sell two of your most gifted players during the final two weeks of the transfer window – especially when you already look set for a season of struggle – £5 million for Bacuna could be a deal simply too good to turn down.
The Dutchman has not kicked a ball for Huddersfield so far this season either, head coach Carlos Corberan reluctant to put his faith in a man who will become a free agent next summer.
And a £5 million windfall could certainly be put to good use at a time when this Huddersfield side look worryingly short in a number of key positions.
