Might a club tempt Notts with a million for Mac?

FOUR CHAMPIONSH­IP CLUBS ARE RUMOURED TO BE TAKING SERIOUS LOOK AT MAGPIES’ SCORING SENSATION

NOTTS County’s Macaulay Langstaff is reportedly the subject of interest from four Championsh­ip clubs as the January transfer window nears.

Cardiff City, Swansea City, Bristol City and Preston North End are all rumoured to have registered interest in the 25-year-old, as his rich vein of form for the Magpies continues to catch the eye.

The striker signed at the start of this season after helping Gateshead win promotion from the National League North, scoring 30 goals in 42 appearance­s for Mike Williamson’s side.

And his form this season has helped Notts climb to second in the table. He has netted 18 goals in 20 appearance­s under Luke Williams, even earning comparison­s to Manchester City forward Erling Haaland.

In a Post interview with Magpies owners Alexander and Christoffe­r Reedtz earlier this month, Alexander conceded an “extraordin­ary offer” could prise Langstaff away from Meadow Lane.

Langstaff is currently contracted until 2024 at Meadow Lane but it does not seem unrealisti­c that prediction­s of a bid of up to a million pounds may prove correct.

That could be the sort of sum the Magpies would feel they simply could not refuse.
