The Coventry City midfielder is said to be interesting Sheffield United, Aston Villa and West Bromwich Albion.
Neither Sheffield United, Aston Villa nor West Bromwich Albion have ‘asked the question’ about the Coventry City midfielder, Tom Bayliss.
That is the response given the Coventry manager, Mark Robins, when asked about reports crediting Sheffield United, Aston Villa and West Brom with an interest in Bayliss.
The 20-year-old, who scored or made six goals in 41 games for City last season, is the latest home-grown talent to emerge from Sky Blue Lodge, after James Maddison and Callum Wilson.
And Robins has accepted that there could be interest in Bayliss.
But the 49-year-old insisted via the Coventry Telegraph: “No-one has asked us the question.
“It’s speculation.
“As far as I am aware no-one has made any inquiries to the club all summer, or for a fair period of time.
“But that doesn’t mean to say that there isn’t any interest.
“But at the minute no-one has contacted us.”
Bayliss is not the first player to be linked with all three of Sheffield United, Aston Villa and West Brom since the end of last season. with the Blackburn Rovers midfielder, Bradley Dack, another.
And a move to either of the trio could appeal to Bayliss, with Premier League football awaiting both Sheffield United and Aston Villa this season, and the Villans and West Brom both local to the Leicester-born player.
Where do you think Bayliss will be plying his trade after the transfer window?
