Exclusive: Bolton Wanderers, Charlton Athletic & Blackburn Rovers in transfer race for Wrexham star | OneFootball

Wrexham forward Davis Keillor-Dunn is of loan interest to Bolton Wanderers, Charlton Athletic and Blackburn Rovers, Football League World has learned

Wrexham forward Davis Keillor-Dunn remains a hot property amid lingering uncertainty surrounding his future with Phil Parkinson's side, and Football League World can exclusively reveal that a trio of Championship clubs in Bolton Wanderers, Charlton Athletic and Blackburn Rovers all hold an interest in taking the ex-Barnsley starlet out of North Wales before tomorrow evening's 11pm deadline.

Keillor-Dunn has endured a testing period at the Stok Cae Ras after joining Wrexham in a high-profile switch from Barnsley in February of this year, with frequent game-time under Parkinson proving difficult to come by for the 28-year-old.

Despite only spending a short time with the Red Dragons, however, Keillor-Dunn's future in Wales has been the subject of speculation throughout the summer months, and a number of sides are now bidding to keep the versatile attacker in the Championship by swooping for his signature ahead of deadline day.

Sources have disclosed to FLW that three second-tier outfits are poised to battle for the out-of-favour Wrexham frontman in the form of Bolton, Charlton and Blackburn, with the trio still looking to complete further deals before the clock is up tomorrow evening.

FLW understands that Keillor-Dunn's exit would be on a loan basis for the remainder of the 2026/27 campaign, with reports earlier this summer having linked both Leicester City and Sheffield Wednesday with a move.

However, it now looks as though he will be remaining at Championship level instead as Bolton, Charlton and Blackburn prepare to battle it out for a deal in the final stages of the window.

Wrexham saw off a host of competition elsewhere to lure Keillor-Dunn away from Barnsley during the previous window, although the former Mansfield Town sensation is yet to make his mark in English football's second-tier.

Indeed, Keillor-Dunn has not even started a single fixture for Wrexham to date, having made just six league appearances in the second-half of last season before finding himself similarly out-of-favour this time around.

Competition for places in Parkinson's final third is rife and Keillor-Dunn, who is capable of leading the line or playing in attacking midfield, has found that out the hard way as he finds himself firmly behind the likes of Nathan Broadhead and Kieffer Moore in the thinking of the Red Dragons boss.

It's only likely, then, that Keillor-Dunn himself will be all-too-open to a swift exit out of North Wales in order to gain regular minutes elsewhere, with frequent game-time evidently not on the agenda for a player with a little over 30 minutes worth of action under his belt thus far in the new campaign.

Wrexham's Davis Keillor-Dunn would be a smart addition at Bolton, Charlton or Blackburn

Keillor-Dunn's impressive body of work in League One with Barnsley is exactly what's keeping his services on the radar of Championship clubs looking to reap the rewards of what Wrexham have overlooked, and he would represent a shrewd addition for any of the three interested parties.

At Bolton, he would offer an immediate upgrade on James McAtee, who has been linked with a move away, and could be something of a needle-mover in Steven Schumacher's frontline.

Charlton, meanwhile, remain in search of additional reinforcements despite taking three victories from as many matches to reach the summit of the league table, and though Nathan Jones is hardly short of attacking personnel, the Wrexham ace would perhaps provide increased output over Sonny Carey and Harvey Knibbs, for example.

As for Blackburn, Tony Mowbray would only be right to feel settled and comfortable with the existing options of maverick playmaker Todd Cantwell behind one of Andri Gudjohnsen, Mathias Jorgensen and Yuki Ohashi.
