JAMIE Reed has been told he can leave York City during the transfer window if the club receive the right offer for his services.
The 25-year-old forward has informed manager Gary Mills he is unhappy with his limited chances in City’s starting line-up and that he would like to try his luck elsewhere.
Blue Square Bet Premier promotion contenders Grimsby and Wrexham have expressed an interest in Reed, who has netted 25 times in 81 outings for City including 45 from the bench.
But no club has yet matched Mills’ modest asking price and, if they don’t, Reed could remain a Minsterman until the end of the season and would be considered for selection for every game between now and then.
Reed is expected to be named on the bench for Saturday’s League Two clash at Cheltenham, with Mills saying: “There have been a couple of clubs inquiring about him and he’s expressed to me that he’s not happy and would like to go and play football somewhere else now. I’ve told him that he can go if the right offer comes in for him. We would not be looking for fortunes but we would want some money for him."
