Puncheon waits on future
Interest mounts in winger
Jason Puncheon, described as the best player outside the Premier League, is waiting to see whether he will be leaving Barnet or not this month.
The 21-year-old has had a tremendous season for The Bees and his form has seen a host of scouts follow his progress.
Indeed a host of Premier League clubs are believed to be weighing up a beat-the-deadline bid for the winger.
Puncheon has been the subject of bids from Leeds - who are desperate to clinch his signature and are trying to seal a quick deal before a Premier or Championship club can swoop.
Lions Hunting For PuncheonMillwall and Leeds United are battling it out to sign highly-rated Barnet winger Jason Puncheon.
Puncheon, 21, has scored 10 goals from midfield so far this season having joined the Underhill club on a free transfer last summer.
But the Lions will have to cough up in excess of £250,000 if they want to get their man, with Leeds reportedly having an initial bid turned down.
Puncheon's agent Tony Finnigan told SkySports earlier this week:
'We know about the interest in him, and we just have to wait and see what happens.
'The clubs in for Jason know what Barnet want for him so we just have to see what happens between now and next Thursday.'
