As reported by The News, the Blues had scrapped a deal to land the Pilgrims front man, with Ladapo’s wage demands understood to be behind the breakdown of the transfer.

Sunderland were also linked with Ladapo – but he’s opted for Rotherham after holding talks and becomes the club’s record signing.
