Bournemouth will try to offload Lewis Grabban before Wednesday’s 11pm deadline, with a string of Championship clubs – including Bristol City, Leeds United and Reading – all keen according to the Sun (31/08 edition, p52).
Grabban rejoined the Cherries in January following an unsuccessful spell at Norwich City, but is yet to score in 20 appearances back at Dean Court.

And with Callum Wilson – signed, ironically, to replace Grabban two years ago – back to full fitness, Bournemouth are reportedly looking for takers.
Derby County were linked with a £6 million move for Grabban on Monday (Sun, via Derby Telegraph), and are also mentioned in the latest report, alongside Bristol City, Leeds and Reading.
Of those three, City, who sold Jonathan Kodjia to Aston Villa in a deal worth a reported £15 million on Tuesday, are Derby’s most likely rival unless Bournemouth are willing to sanction a loan deal.
However, should Leeds’ interest prove genuine, they will hope to secure preferential treatment from the Cherries – to whom they sold youngster Lewis Cook last month.
