AKINOLA A MAN IN DEMAND

BARNET want Braintree Town attacker Sim Akinola, one of Non-League football’s most highly-rated players.

But the League Two Bees will have to improve their initial offer for the 24-yearold, who is out of contract at the National League relegation battlers.

A source close to the player confirmed there was other Football League interest – as well as offers from a number of promotion-chasing National League clubs.
