Yeo To Join Stockport?

31st May 2006

Lincoln City's supporters are bracing themselves for a further blow, as Simon Yeo could leave The Imps.

Earlier this month, Yeo was offered a new contract along with three others. According to reports in the media, this new offer means a reduction in his current wages. Unsurprisingly, Yeo is reported to have rejected this offer but is set to hold further talks with Lincoln City FC.

Meanwhile, Stockport County have confirmed that they could make an approach for Yeo. Stockport's manager Jim Gannon is considering talks with the striker after Yeo's agent contacted them about a transfer.

Gannon confirmed: "Simon’s agent has been in contact with us.

"I am after another attacker, but Simon is 33 now so we will have to decide whether we wish to pursue anything."

Yeo was born in Hyde and could favour a return to the Greater Manchester area.

Yeo left Lincoln last summer to sign a three-year contract with New Zealand Knights to play in the inaugural Australian League. However, he returned to England after less than six months away and was signed on a six-month contract by Lincoln City, where he helped The Imps to reach the League Two play-offs for the fourth consecutive season.
