With speculation continuing to rage over the future of former England midfielder Lee Bowyer, it is clear that he has four distinct choices; to stay at his current club Birmingham City, or to join Leeds United, Nottingham Forest or Derby County.
Blues have responded to the growing interest in the veteran by belatedly offering him a deal to stay at the club for another year, but it is thought that Bowyer is unhappy that he was snubbed for so long in this regard and is looking for a lucrative free transfer move, likely to be the last of his career, even if it means dropping down a division. A pal of the Londoner told us: "Lee feels let down by Birmingham. He's given his all for them and is a real fans' favourite, but they couldn't be bothered offering him a new contract until they heard others were interested. He feels used, to be honest."
Leeds remain the front-runners for the ex-Newcastle man's signature but East Midlands compatriots Forest and Derby will not give in easily in a chase for a player both regard as vital in their pursuit of success next season.
