Exclusive: Wolves are predicted to win the Ipswich Town transfer race over Leeds and Burnley.
Ipswich is expected to receive bids for O’Shea this summer, as the 26-year-old, who joined from Turf Moor last summer for £15 million, is apparently attracting interest from Leeds, Wolves, and former team Burnley.
Despite their 82 goals given up and consequent relegation, the Republic of Ireland international made 35 appearances in the top division for Kieran McKenna’s team last season and was voted player of the season.
When asked if losing the defender would be a loss for Ipswich, Hendrie was all praise in an exclusive interview with Football League World.
“I think he is one of those defenders where you know what you are getting from him,” he stated to FLW.
“He’s one of those solid performers, he leads by example, and I definitely think he’s got it in his locker to step up for any of those teams for sure.”
Hendrie thinks Wolves would be the ideal fit for O’Shea given his style of play and the club’s, as Burnley and Leeds are trying to be ready for life back in the Premier League after their promotion.
“Wolves would be a nice fit for him because of their style and the way they play,” he stated. “He’s a footballing defender so I think Wolves would be the perfect fit for him.”
