Brighton Take Transfer Decision On Player Blackburn, Stoke And QPR Want
Moran, an attacking midfielder, is highly rated by Brighton and remained with the club last season to clock regular game time in the Premier League 2.
The Seagulls have been considering what to do with Moran and have now reached a decision, with a loan being actively sought.
The Championship looks likely to be Moran’s destination and he has three suitors.
Blackburn, Stoke and QPR have all declared an interest in taking the Brighton man on a temporary deal.
Moran and Brighton will now decide which club represent the best fit for a loan stint.
The attack-minded starlet will be aiming to make sure he is playing on a regular basis to aid his continued development.
Moran, 19, has been capped by the Republic of Ireland at multiple youth levels and is able to operate in an advanced midfield role, as a number 10, a central striker and a winger.
Latest: Portsmouth boss reveals latest over Colby Bishop future amid talk of Ipswich Town and Blackburn Rovers interest
And Blues boss John Mousinho doesn’t anticipate a scenario unfolding where the striker moves on this month, as he remains settled at Fratton Park.
Bishop has been linked with a departure this summer, after a goal-laden maiden campaign with Pompey which returned 24 strikes.
Championship pair Ipswich and Blackburn are among those who’ve been linked with the 26-year-old, who arrived from Accrington for £500,000 last summer.
Mousinho has been delighted with Bishop’s all-round contribution in addition to two league goals, as he starts his second campaign at PO4.
And he only sees that situation developing in a Pompey shirt as the season progresses.
Mousinho said: ‘No there’s nothing (interest in Bishop) – which is great news for us.
‘From our perspective we’ve got Colby here on a long-term contract and in my eyes is playing some spectacular football.
‘Maybe you wouldn’t describe Colby as a spectacular player, but it is spectacular in my eyes in terms of what he does for us.
‘The work-rate he puts in, the way he leads the line and puts chances away when he gets them. He’s a real leader in every sense of the word.
‘The situation with Colby is, I think, he’s incredibly happy in terms of the football he’s playing and he’s had an incredibly successful 12 or 13 months here – so long may that continue.’
