Pirates ace attracting interest

A number of sides are monitoring Rickie Lambert's contract situation at Bristol Rovers, skysports.com understands. Lambert is entering the final year of his current deal at the Memorial Stadium and as yet no new contract has been agreed. The news has alerted a host of Championship and League One clubs who are tracking the powerful forward. Lambert has no shortage of admirers after impressing at Rovers over the last few seasons. The 26-year-old is a natural target man with a good goalscoring record having finished as the club's top scorer last term with 19 goals, and he got off the mark for this season in the opening game against Carlisle. Lambert's suitors are watching his contract developments and are ready to move for him if Rovers fail to tie him down to a new deal. Rovers are reluctant to lose Lambert and they are aware of the need to agree fresh terms rather than risk letting his contract run down and the possibility of losing him for free.
