Clucas Transfer Chance Increases As Stags Cut Spending


The likelihood of Sam Clucas leaving Mansfield this week has increased after the Stags announced a cut in spending.

Blaming the recent move to reclaim loans by two former Directors, a club statement tells fans that funds originally scheduled to fund new signings this week have been withdrawn and directed towards the legal bill they say they will run up.

Also cut is a planned pre-season trip to Malta. Ex-Directors Steve Hymas and Andrew Saunders are claiming around £1million in loans they made to the club.

Rumours persist that Nottm Forest have lodged a £250,000 offer for the player that was valued at £20,000 by a tribunal only four months ago. The Bulls' 15% cut would be worth around £35,000.

Update: Stags' manager Paul Cox has told the local press:  “I have not had a phone call about Sam so he remains a Mansfield player.”
