Jordan Willis's move to Rotherham United has stalled due to the player being unable to agree personal terms with the struggling Championship club.
Our sources in South Yorkshire tell us that the Millers' attempts to sign the Sky Blues skipper have hit a stalemate after the two parties have been unable to agree on wages - a situation complicated by the fact that United appear to be heading back to League One next season.
COVENTRY City have rejected a third offer for captain Jordan Willis from Rotherham United this afternoon, club sources have told the Observer.
Our Sky Blues sources say speculation elsewhere is ‘totally false’ that they had accepted a third offer from theChampionship Yorkshire club yesterday.
They say reports are also totally false that the stumbling block had been the player had failed to agree personal terms with Rotherham, including on wages.
It is not clear whether Rotherham will continue to pursue the 22-year-old-defender today, with the transfer deadline looming tonight.
Club sources tell us Rotherham have not met the Sky Blues’ valuation for the player, hence the third bid was rejected.
