Salford City is on the verge of completing a deal for Doncaster Rovers winger Luke Molyneux, with a medical booked for the 28-year-old.

What's happening?

The League Two outfit agreed a transfer fee with Doncaster Rovers on Friday night, and transfer specialist Pete O’Rourke claims that a medical is underway for Molyneux.

Why it matters for Salford City

Molyneux was a key player for Doncaster Rovers last season, making 52 appearances and scoring 8 goals, and his signing would be a significant boost to Salford City's squad, which finished 4th in League Two with 81 points, 6 points behind leaders Bromley.

What comes next?

Doncaster Rovers manager Grant McCann had said that the club would be willing to sell Molyneux if the right offer came in, and it seems that Salford City has met their valuation, with the winger set to become the eighth new arrival for the 2026/27 season, joining Macaulay Langstaff and Abraham Odoh as fresh attacking options. The signing of Molyneux would be a statement deal for Salford City, which has been busy in the transfer market, and would help to strengthen the team's squad as they look to build on their recent form, including a 61-goal tally and a 10-goal difference, and recover from their last result, a 3-0 loss to Notts County on May 25, 2026.
