Daniel Jebbison is now thought to be the subject of interest from several Championship teams.
Norwich City and Derby County are among the teams to have joined the race to recruit AFC Bournemouth forward Daniel Jebbison.
This is according to HITC, who have revealed that several Championship sides have taken an interest in the forward, who left Sheffield United earlier this summer.
Jebbison spent last season out injured and that was a blow for the attacker in his quest to develop.
Despite this, the Blades wanted to keep hold of him, considering how promising the youngster is.
However, the player rejected the opportunity to extend his stay at Bramall Lane in the end and he made the move to the Vitality Stadium, linking up with the Cherries.
But he may not be in Andoni Iraola's plans in the short term and with this in mind, a loan move to another club could benefit Jebbison for the 2024/25 campaign.
However, it's currently unclear where he will end up, with the player potentially set to attract interest from clubs at home and abroad between now and the end of the summer transfer window.
Plenty of teams from the English second tier have taken an interest in Jebbison, but he won't be moving to Sunderland, according to a report from HITC.
Jebbison is thought to be attracting interest from Norwich at this point, along with Derby, Hull City, Portsmouth, Stoke City and West Bromwich Albion.
The Canaries are in need of more firepower, with Gabriel Sara leaving the club and Adam Idah looking set to follow him out of the exit door at Carrow Road. Jonathan Rowe's future is also uncertain at this point, so recruiting an attacker wouldn't be a bad idea.
Hull are another side that are in desperate need of more firepower, with Jaden Philogene recently leaving the club and the likes of Aaron Connolly, Billy Sharp, Noah Ohio, Anass Zaroury and Fabio Carvalho also departing the MKM Stadium this summer.
Derby and Pompey, meanwhile, will want to make sure their squads are as strong as possible following their second-tier returns.
In terms of West Brom, Brandon Thomas-Asante could be a big miss following his exit, even with Josh Maja scoring a hat-trick on the opening day of the season.
More depth is needed up top - and Carlos Corberan could look to recruit the promising Jebbison - who will only get better considering his age.
He may still be young, but at 21, the forward needs to be playing regularly now if he wants to have any chance of fulfilling his potential.
However, his scoring record for the Blades wasn't brilliant and some clubs may be reluctant to throw him straight into their starting lineup.
But Jebbison must look to join a club that is willing to offer him plenty of game time, because that's the only way he has a chance of developing rapidly.
He could develop his skills in training, but testing himself in a match situation is just as important and it will be interesting to see where he goes, if he leaves the Vitality Stadium this summer.
There's certainly no shortage of interest in his signature.
