Hayes
The 23-year-old is out of contract at Barnsley and is expecting to move on this summer.

And 60.2 per cent of voters in the latest Iron-Bru.net poll said they would welcome Hayes back, while 39.8 per cent say they would not.

He has made tentative enquiries about returning to Glanford Park, two years after quitting the club for Oakwell.

The former Norwich trainee finished as top scorer in League Two as United won promotion, but turned down a contract offer to stay to try his luck at the Tykes.

His first season in Yorkshire saw him help Barnsley to promotion via the League One play-offs, scoring in the Millennium Stadium final, but his first-team opportunites were limited this season.
