A confusing Bristol City update appears

“We hope to add to our lot in the new future. It’s been a positive couple of weeks with the team and I’m happy with the way things are going. We are preparing for the pre-season friendlies, which will be a good test for the players.”

The initial report states that there was no influence between the player and the manager, which Football Insider they also confirmed. However, the latter suggest Conway did not ask to leave the club and the decision to send the forward to the under-21s has angered some players and staff. It is also claimed that City’s latest contract bid was rejected as the Scotland international felt it was “below market value”.

It is said that Rangers will now look to capitalize on the situation and could materialize their interest. The Glasgow outfit are looking to boost their front line after missing out on the Scottish Premiership by eight points last season. James Tavernier was the club’s most recent Golden Boot winner, a feat he achieved from right back.

The writer’s vision

To put it bluntly, this is a mess. What’s even more puzzling is that there has been no row between Conway and Manning, although the boss clearly feels he needs to prepare his squad for the eventuality that the striker leaves the club before the end of the transfer window.
