Oldham push for Patrick McEleney

 

Oldham manager Richie Wellens has described former Derry City man Patrick McEleney as the best player in the League of Ireland.
The Latics boss has told the Manchester Evening News that they have spoken with the agent of the playmaker whose contract at Dundalk expired at the end of the season.
Wellens concedes there are other offers on the table for McEleney, with Blackburn and Doncaster also said to be interested.
Oldham is currently home to both Jack Byrne, and former Sligo striker Eoin Doyle.
