Sunderland and Sheffield Wednesday linked with Crawley Town star

@efl_hub, a twitter handle which speculates about transfer ion the EFL, tweeted yesterday: "Sheffield Wednesday and Sunderland are interested in signing Crawley Town winger Beryly Lubala this summer. #swfc #safc #ctfc #EFL_HUB"

After being shared on the CRAWLEY TOWN 4 LIFE Facebook page by James Eddolls, David Parker posted: "Please no."

Marky Rutherford said: "When he played upfront he was a beast, and when Yems played him left midfield he wasn't as much of a beast. If Palmer goes we should do our best to keep him and actually play him upfront."

James Gillham said: "Don't let him go he's so important to the club. Letting matt tubbs go was a mistake don't make another."

But other fans could see the benefits. Richard Kail said: "Our whole business plan is to develop players like Lubala and sell them for high profits. We didn't make any money like that last season, so we're due to get one over the line. I just hope it's the right side of 500k."

Matt Daniels posted: "Not a massive disappointment if he does go. Started the season strong but then lost it."

Ashley Comper commented: "Would definitely take the money for him! Scored some great goals but became very predictable as the season went on. If we can get a decent amount then happy days."

Lubala signed a two-year contract with the Reds in June 2019 under Gabriele Cioffi. He scored in each of Crawley's first four League Two matches and scored 12 goals in 34 appearances before the season was curtailed.
