Damn you beat me to it. Here's the article:

Skysports.com can confirm that several Championship clubs are keeping close tabs on Yeovil Town's highly-rated defender Nathan Smith.

The left-back has starred for The Glovers over the past two seasons in making 73 league appearances after being snapped up from non-league football.

The pacey defender played for the likes of Enfield, Waltham Forest and Potters Bar Town before making the smooth transition to League One football.

Smith is out of contract this summer and the likes of Reading, Sheffield United and Ipswich have all been credited with an interest in his services.

The 23-year-old has been offered the chance to extend his Huish Park stay, but is likely to reject fresh terms in order to test himself at a higher level.

Highly rated by the fans - see a fan quote below concerning his performance last month against Millwall:


28. Nathan Smith: 8/10 - Probably Nathan's best game this season. Rampaging runs forward, excellent when defending, getting better and better all the time. Sign him on a long term contract NOW.
