Leicester legend Vardy would add that, as would Fulham captain Cairney, as they prepare to become free agents. Bamford, meanwhile, is a proven goalscorer that has just helped Leeds back into the big time.
WHAT HUMPHREY KER SAID
Ker, though, insists that none are registering on the recruitment radar at SToK Racecourse. He told after seeing a list of names thrown at him and responding with "no" to all of them: “Actually, I should stop doing this, because eventually you might say someone where I have to be like, ‘Yes.’
“No, I will say that obviously one of the things is that – much like Ryan Reynolds – the name Wrexham generates clicks, so we are starting now to get linked with absolutely everybody.
“I’m like, ‘Who?’ I see people, I saw our fans getting absolutely incandescent on Twitter about it. ‘What on Earth are they doing trying to sign this guy?!’ when none of us have heard of him before!”

Community director Ker went on to say when asked about a Scotland international at Craven Cottage: “Well, I mean, he’s a brilliant player, Tom Cairney, and I’m sure we’d be very grateful to have him.
“But he is the very specific instance where our fans were like, ‘I’m not sure about this, I don’t know what they’re doing. What does this mean about our transfer thing?’ Like, we haven’t had that conversation yet.”
