Blackpool Eye Up Barnsley Defender Josh Earl
Blackpool are keen on signing Barnsley defender Josh Earl. The 27-year-old has a year left on his contract and has made 85 appearances for the Tykes.
Why Josh Earl Would Be a Good Fit for Blackpool
Earl is an experienced operator in the Football League and would provide balance to Blackpool's backline. He is left-footed and can play in a central role, which would be a welcome addition to the Tangerines' squad.
Blackpool have until the deadline on 1st September to complete any more deals as they prepare for the rest of the 2026/27 season under manager Ian Evatt. It remains to be seen if the interest develops into anything more serious.
Blackpool are currently 11th in League One, 1 point behind leaders Huddersfield, with 1 goal scored and 1 conceded this season. They face Reading at home on 13th February 2027.
