Bristol Rovers paying £700,000 for one of their summer signings was a ‘knock-on effect’ from a deal elsewhere in the market, according to the Athletic.
The Gas were keen to strengthen this summer and made a number of additions, with Isaac Hutchinson landing from Walsall, while Promise Omochere joined from Fleetwood Town and Clinton Mola headed from Reading, amongst other deals.
The club forked out a substantial £700,000 to land Omochere and it has been suggested that level of fee was influenced by events elsewhere.
