Sports Mole rounds up all of the latest transfer news in the Championship on Wednesday, September 30.
Wednesday morning's Championship transfer talk news roundup:
Manchester United 'consider Ismaila Sarr as Jadon Sancho alternative'

Manchester United may reportedly move for Watford attacker Ismaila Sarr should they fail to make a breakthrough for Borussia Dortmund's Jadon Sancho.
The Red Devils have spent all summer trying to agree a deal for Sancho, despite BVB making clear that they are no longer interested in selling the England international.
United are believed to be planning one last move for Sancho, but their £90m valuation is still some way off the £108m Dortmund are after.
According to the Daily Mail, alternative plans are now in place as United do not want to end the window without a new player to operate out wide.
Sarr is said to have been identified by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as a good back-up option after catching the eye in the Premier League with relegated Watford last season.
The 22-year-old, who directly contributed to nine goals in 28 appearances in 2019-20, was also touted as a target for Liverpool before they moved for Diogo Jota.
Manchester United 'end interest in Bournemouth duo David Brooks, Joshua King'

Manchester United have reportedly decided against moves for Bournemouth duo David Brooks and Joshua King this summer.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is keen to add attacking reinforcements to his squad before the deadline, with Donny van de Beek still the only arrival in the current window despite links to a number of high-profile players.
Borussia Dortmund winger Jadon Sancho remains United's top target, although differences in the valuation of the England international have seen those talks stall.
The Manchester Evening News reports that Brooks was never considered as an alternative for Sancho, and that the Red Devils have ended their interest in the midfielder for now.
United have also parked their centre-forward pursuit to rule out a return for academy product King, although they could revive their interest in him in January when Odion Ighalo's loan spell ends.
United have until October 16 to complete domestic deals, with next Monday's deadline only applying to international transfers.
