Charlton are interested in Colchester midfielder George Moncur - with the 22-year-old set to move after United’s relegation to League Two.
The former West Ham United youngster is expected to cost in the region of £150,000.
And Moncur, who had a loan spell with Wimbledon early in his professional career, has been identified as a signing target for the Addicks.
Despite Colchester’s struggles in League One he managed to score 12 goals in 42 appearances to finish top of their scoring charts.
The former England U18 international is the son of John Moncur, who played for Tottenham, West Ham and Swindon.
Moncur signed permanently for the U’s in November 2014 and his contract runs until next summer.

    I reckon Richard C is in charge of player recruitment now. Makes his scoops easier!

    If wilder has already met with cafc I'm sure he will have given them a list of player he wants as much as a test of their commitment as anything else.

    Moncur sounds like just the type of player we need.

    What part of Belgium is he from?

    Don't underestimate the input Lennie Lawrence has had. It was he who drew up a list of British managerial targets and identified playing targets we should persue.

    He's actually meant to be quite good, would be pleased with this. But it's getting all the more confusing.... Wilder and Moncur are literally the complete opposite of what Roland has been doing!

    What's going to be more annoying is selling them all for pittance when we get promoted and bringing in Belgians instead...

    I'd snap him up. Don't care who it is signing him. He is a decent player.

    Would snap him up for £150k every day of the week. Really really good player and a record of 1 in 4 in the league for a midfield player, reminds me of a certain club captain...

    there was a rumour about the time of the the great laundry basket fiasco that we might sign him but they couldn't fit him into the basket.

    Good player. I wanted us to sign him in January. Would be good with Cousins - if we manage to keep him.

    Plus we were after him in Jan

    Don't you think that if we had LL working for us and identifying players the club would be shouting about it from the rooftops?

    that's a filthy rumour which I deny, I'm not working for the club and that is a statistic

    If we sign him, I'll let him off for the way he celebrated against us last season when he scored for the U's

    Good player.

    I hear the deal was first mooted with the lad in a laundry basket after the Third Round cup tie.

    2026. Undisclosed location, the Duchatalet Football Lab:

    Fembot 99: "No George Moncur. But Juan Van-Kerr is available. A fine pedigree. He's the product of our Alcorcon and St. Truiden breeding programme. I'm sure you'll find him adequate."
    Head Coach Bot: "That'll do, huh."
    Fembot 99: "Speaking of pedigree, can I interest you in a Nobby Fanny?"

    Doesn't seem very realistic. No beach balls on the pitch.

    Seems like an utter bellend on social media and I'm a bit hurt that he celebrated against us. If he signs I'm gonna need a genuine scarfy picture and an apology to be convinced

    I really didnt get it, he proper gave it the big 'un to us. If he was an ex player I could understand it (but not condone) but he isnt?

    You've been hurt a few times this season with the number of goals we've conceded.
