Barnsley have made Jason Kerr their number one transfer target, but could face competition for the St Johnstone defender from Cardiff City and Bristol City, according to The Sun.

The newspaper claims Kerr is being lined up as a replacement for Liam Lindsay, who it is claimed is set to leave Barnsley amid interest from several clubs at home and abroad after entering the final year of his contract.

The Tykes are said to have seen a £250,000 offer turned down for the 22-year-old in January, prompting St Johnstone to tie him down to a new three-year deal.

But Barnsley – along with both Cardiff and Bristol City – have continued to monitor him since then, according to The Sun.

And the newspaper claims Daniel Stendel’s side are ‘determined to get him this time’ – adding that Cardiff and Bristol City are impressed with what they’ve seen.

Kerr played 44 times for St Johnstone last season and captained them on numerous occasions.

Would Kerr be a good addition for Barnsley, Cardiff or Bristol City?
