Scunthorpe United are unlikely to stand in Joey Dawson’s way with the likes of Celtic and Derby County weighing up summer bids, Irons manager Neil Cox told BBC Radio Humberside, via Iron Bru.
He may be the nephew of Nottingham Forest veteran Matthew but, beyond those family ties, there are not too many similarities between Dawsons young and old.
Joey is a striker, unlike his centre-half uncle, and a rather prolific one at that.
The youngster’s record for Scunthorpe’s reserve sides is certainly impressive, with Wayne Rooney’s Derby and Scottish giants Celtic alerted to his potential availability.
