Blackpool are locked in a transfer tussle with Wycombe Wanderers for Gillingham winger Mark Marshall according to Football Insider. 

The 33-year-old is out of contract at the end of the 2019/20 season, which seems to have seen interest in his services rise as the January transfer window progresses.

Marshall has made 22 appearances for Gillingham this term, and has one assist to his name but is yet to register a goal, which will be slightly frustrating for the winger.

A move to Blackpool or Wycombe Wanderers could be a tempting proposition though, as both of the interested parties are challenging for promotion into the Championship this season.

Blackpool are currently sat 15th in the League One table, and will be hoping they can break out of a poor run of form at the earliest of opportunities.

Simon Grayson's side might be further down the table than Gillingham (14th) currently are, but they have a game in hand, as well as being only seven points adrift of the play-off positions, so a top-six finish certainly shouldn't be ruled out.

Whilst the Chairboys are sat second in the third tier standings, and are seemingly keen to add some depth to their squad before the transfer window closes.

Blackpool are next in action on Saturday when they host Tranmere Rovers, in a game which they'll be keen to pick up a much-needed three points.

The Verdict: 

I'm not sure he'd be fully deserving of a move to either side at the moment if I'm being brutally honest.

Marshall is a good winger that has experience of playing at League One level, but his statistics this season don't make for the best of reading for any interested teams.

He only has one assist to his name, and is yet to score for Gillingham, so there is work to do in the near future if he is to attract further interest in the January transfer window.

Blackpool certainly need to be doing something different after a poor run of form has seen them slip down the table, and Marshall could be that change. I can't see him getting the game time he needs at Wycombe, so a move to Blackpool could make sense for both parties involved.
