Rumour Mill-ers

Rotherham keen on departing Imps Keeper

Rotherham United are keen on signing Lincoln City Goalkeeper, Josh Vickers.

Josh Vickers kept a clean sheet at the AESSEAL New York Stadium earlier this season, but conceded one goal in the reverse fixture.

The Imps No.1’s contract ends today (June 30th) and will be released from the Club. Vickers, 24, joined Lincoln in 2017 after being released by Swansea City without making a first team appearance.

Starting his career in the Arsenal youth ranks, Vickers was loaned out to Canvey Island and Concord Rangers during his time with The Gunners. He signed for Swansea City in 2015 and was loaned to Barnet for the 16-17 season.

The Imps acquired the young Keeper in 2017 and won the EFL Trophy in his first season with Lincoln and then the League Two title the following season.

This season Vickers has made 37 appearances in all competitions, keeping 10 clean sheets and conceding 48 goals, thats 1.3 goals conceded per game.

At present, Rotherham United are the only club rumoured to be keen on Josh Vickers. Only one Goalkeeper is currently on the books with The Millers after Daniel Iversen loan ended and Laurence Bilboe was released. Lewis Price is yet to sign a new contract.
