Transfer Gossip (Wednesday): Champions eye Huddersfield Town star | Rotherham United beat Sunderland | Sheffield Wednesday want £3m for Rhodes

MANCHESTER CITY are considering activating Huddersfield Town midfielder Aaron Mooy’s £20m buy-back clause - according to national reports.

The hugely-influential Australian joined City in 2016 from sister club Melbourne City before joining Town on loan and has quickly become a crowd favourite at the John Smith’s Stadium.

His loan move was made into a £10m permanent switch last summer but a £20m buy-back option was included in the contract.

Mooy’s outstanding displays last season have marked the card of City, who have kept an eye on the 27-year-old’s performances in the World Cup, where he was one of the Socceroos’ stand-out players.

According to some German reports, Borussia Dortmund defender Erik Durm is set to undergo a medical at Huddersfield in the coming days.

Durm, who has found regular first-team opportunities hard to come by at Dortmund, has been handed a Premier League opportunity by Town, as they look to consolidate their Premier League status next term.

The 26-year-old, who has played for the German senior side, is naturally a left-back, but is also capable of featuring at right-back.

Rotherham United are set to pip Sunderland to the signing of former Blackpool defender Clark Robertson.

The Wearsiders have held talks with the 24-year-old centre-half, but he is said to be keen on testing himself in the Championship.

Robertson, a free agent after leaving the Seasiders, played 39 times for Blackpool last season and was named player of the season at Bloomfield Road.

Sheffield Wednesday have reportedly slapped a £3m loan fee on Norwich City target Jordan Rhodes - with the Canaries having expressed an interest in signing the 28-year-old.

Middlesbrough will follow up the £5m capture of Sunderland midfielder Paddy McNair by completing a £6m deal to sign Bristol City defender Aden Flint today (Wednesday).

Flint’s transfer should be formally confirmed on Wednesday morning after he successfully underwent a medical at Boro’s training ground on Tuesday.

A number of Championship clubs registered an interest in the 28-year-old, but Boro were the first to table a formal offer.

Former Hull City full-back Moses Odubajo is set for talks with Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers about a move to Parkhead and joining up with the Scottish giants in Austria.

AFC Wimbledon have signed former Bradford target man James Hanson from Sheffield United.

Meanwhile, Timothee Dieng has become the latest player to reject Bradford City’s offer of a new contract.
