The Northampton Town goalkeeper could replace Boaz Myhill at West Bromwich Albion.
Northampton Town fans are reacting to reports linking goalkeeper Richard O’Donnell with a move to West Bromwich Albion.
According to the Sun, O’Donnell is set to sign for West Brom as Boaz Myhill’s replacement, with the Northampton player known to Baggies coach Neil Culter from their Walsall days.
And O’Donnell’s recent Twitter activity – ‘liking’ a number of posts about his departure – suggests that could well be the case.
The 29-year-old only moved to Sixfields from Rotherham United in January, and signed a contract until June 2020 with the side whose relegation to League Two he was unable to prevent.
Although the Cobblers’ loss would be West Brom’s gain, based on the following tweets…
Despite having played most of his football at League One level, O’Donnell does have prior Championship experience from spells at Sheffield Wednesday, Bristol City and Rotherham.
The Yorkshireman is likely to compete with Ben Foster if he moves to West Brom, although the former England international has also been tipped for a move this summer.
Would Northampton’s O’Donnell make a good West Brom addition?
