Scotland striker Oli McBurnie is now playing his football with Las Palmas in La Liga. | Getty Images Despite his double relegation, the 16-cap Scotland international is set to be one of the most in-demand strikers in this summer's transfer window, with up to four clubs set to be ready to rival each other for his signature - including one club set to play in the UEFA Europa League next season. According to a new report from Alan Nixon, the 28-year-old has attracted interest from two of his former clubs, with both Swansea City and Sheffield United both hoping to add the Las Palmas striker to their ranks next season, alongside fellow EFL Championship club Hull City.

It is claimed that head coach Claudio Giráldez González wants to add further depth to his squad after leading his side to the Europa League, with McBurnie said to have made enough of an impression in La Liga to warrant significant interest in his services.
