After spending a season on loan with Bristol Rovers during the 2021/22 campaign, Joey Barton has been hoping to sign Connor Taylor for the Gas again during this transfer window. However, in a report from Bristol Live today, the former player has revealed that the club may not be able to bring the defender back to the League One outfit.
Having never played in an EFL campaign before lining up for Rovers in the fourth tier last season, it was unknown how he would fare in League Two.
However, the 20-year-old ended up being a regular feature for the Gas and was a key player, managing 42 showings for the club and three goals too.
He helped the side to get promoted back into League One and boss Barton now wants him back again for their third tier campaign.
