The Fulham striker could fill the void left by Bradshaw, who moved from Barnsley to Millwall on Thursday.

According to the Sun, Barnsley are in talks to sign Fulham’s Cauley Woodrow as a replacement for Tom Bradshaw, who left for Millwall on Thursday.

Bradshaw departed Barnsley on an initial loan deal that will become permanent in January, for an up-front fee of £1 million.

And the Sun reports Woodrow will be allowed to leave Fulham under a similar arrangement, with the 23-year-old surplus to requirements after the arrivals of Andre Schurrle, Aleksandar Mitrovic and Luciano Vietto in the summer transfer window.

Woodrow, who came through Fulham’s academy system, has previously enjoyed loan spells at Southend United, Bristol City and Burton Albion – for whom he scored or made seven goals in 14 Championship outings the season before last.

How much Barnsley will pay for the former England Under-21 international remains to be seen, although the fact he is out of contract next summer should keep the fee low.

Will Woodrow prove a worthy replacement for Millwall-bound Bradshaw at Barnsley?
