LOSC Competes with Nottingham, Leeds, and Wolfsburg for the Talents of Josh Mulligan

Josh Mulligan may not be a familiar name to many, but he is quickly becoming a standout player in the Scottish Premier League. Since joining Hibernian last summer, the 23-year-old midfielder has consistently delivered exceptional performances. Just this past weekend, he showcased his talent in a 3-0 victory against Falkirk, contributing with impressive dribbles, sharp runs, and his third assist of the season. His rapid rise includes his debut for the national team last October, and local analysts now believe his inclusion in the squad for the upcoming World Cup is all but guaranteed.

Such impressive displays haven’t gone unnoticed across borders. In England, teams like Leeds United and Nottingham Forest are closely monitoring his progress. However, competition also comes from Germany: reports indicate that Wolfsburg (Bundesliga) and Lille are both interested. The Lille management sees potential in Mulligan, especially since he has a release clause this winter that is quite reasonable for a player on the verge of international stardom. It remains to be seen which club—whether Lille, one of the English teams, or the German side—will make the most compelling offer to secure him.
