THE QUIZ STARTS!

Coventry City could see Barron as someone to strengthen their midfield department and he has a lot of potential.

The Scotland youth international would be a decent long-term option for the Sky Blues in the middle of the park as they look to eventually make it to the Premier League. They reached the play-off final last year but were beaten on penalties by Luton Town, who are now back in the Football League after 12 months in the top flight.

Barron has been on the books at Aberdeen for his entire career to date and has risen through the ranks at their academy.

He was a regular for the Scottish Premiership side at various youth levels before being handed his first team debut in January 2022 in a Scottish Cup clash against Edinburgh City.

The Kintore-born man then had loan spells at Brechin City and Kelty Hearts in the lower leagues to get some experience under his belt.

Barron then returned to his parent club and hasn’t looked back since. He became one of their most prized assets and made 73 appearances in all competitions, with two goals and four assists.

Bologna could see the youngster as a key target following his recent success with fellow Scot Lewis Ferguson.

However, Coventry City, along with Swansea City, would offer him a chance to play in England and he would likely get plenty of game time with the pair if he were to move across the border.
