Even though doyle was their top scorer,this bloke was apparently their star player.The money they were asking for him in January made the doyle fee look small in comparison!!

Recently-appointed Chesterfield club captain Sam Morsy has impressed a number of Championship clubs who are continuing to show interest ahead of the summer transfer window.

Egypt-eligble midfielder Sam Morsy, who has captained Chesterfield to a Championship promotion playoff place, is being chased by a number of Championship clubs.

Cardiff, Sheffield Wednesday, Leeds United and Wigan had all made offers in January for Sam Morsy, but were hastily rejected by Chesterfield, who lost their top goalscorer Eoin Doyle to Cardiff City and were looking for an astronomical fee for the 23-year-old Egyptian.

Morsy, who in an interview with KingFut expressed his intentions to continue improving his game and progressing with Chesterfield, has said that it would be his dream to represent Egypt.

Chesterfield finished the season with a 1-1 draw against Sheffield United who managed to finish one place above them in 5th. The Spireites had already guaranteed themselves a promotional playoff place after their 2-0 defeat to League One champions Bristol City.

Chesterfield will play Preston North End in the Championship promotion playoff semi-final on the 7th May at the Proact Stadium with the return leg at Sheffield’s Bramall Lane on 10th May.

Cardiff City step up interest in Chesterfield midfielder Sam Morsy as Russell Slade eyes first summer singing

The Bluebirds boss has been tracking the progress of 23-year-old Morsy, who was Chesterfield player of the year when they won the League Two title last season

Cardiff City boss Russell Slade could move closer to his first signing of the summer this week as he monitors Chesterfield midfielder Sam Morsy in the League One play-offs.

The Bluebirds boss has been tracking the progress of 23-year-old Morsy, who was Chesterfield player of the year when they won the League Two title last season.

Cardiff, Sheffield Wednesday, Leeds and Wigan were all linked with a move for Morsy in January, but he is on a long-term contract at Chesterfield and stayed to help them earn a play-off spot.

City manager Slade has watched Morsy’s development and could go back in for the holding midfield player, who describes himself as ‘a box-to-box midfield player who can break up play and link defence to attack quickly’.
