Not one, but two English Football League Championship sides are fighting to acquire Orlando City and U.S. men’s national team forward Duncan McGuire.

Blackburn Rovers and Sheffield Wednesday are chasing McGuire prior to the closure of the January Transfer Window, National World reported Tuesday. Blackburn has reportedly offered Orlando City a $2.9 million transfer fee to acquire McGuire, according to the report.

McGuire, 22, is coming off his USMNT debut in January’s 1-0 friendly loss to Slovenia on home soil. A former Mac Hermann award winner, McGuire enjoyed an impressive debut campaign in MLS last year.

McGuire scored 13 goals and registered three assists in 32 league appearances for the Lions, helping them return to the MLS Cup Playoffs.

Both Blackburn Rovers and Sheffield Wednesday could desperately using scoring help if they want to avoid relegation from the EFL Championship. Blackburn sits 18th in the league table, 11 points out of the final promotion playoff spot, but eight points clear of the bottom three.

Sheffield Wednesday are six points from safety in the league standings and have lost the most matches to date in the current campaign (18).
