Lincoln City midfielder Ethan Erhahon has shared his thoughts on the growing transfer interest from clubs such as Hull City, sparking speculation around a potential move as the January window approaches.
Erhahon, 23, remains focused on his time with Lincoln City, where he has impressed this season with 12 appearances in League One, solidifying his place as a standout performer in the league.
Lincoln City’s Rising Talent Attracts Championship Interest
After being named both Players’ Player and Fans’ Player of the Season at Sincil Bank last year, Erhahon’s reputation has steadily risen. Originally signed for approximately £250,000 from St Mirren in January 2023, the Scottish former U-21 international has proven to be an invaluable asset for Lincoln. His contract still has a couple of years remaining, giving Lincoln a strong position to negotiate should they choose to entertain offers for the highly sought-after defensive midfielder.
With Hull City and several other Championship clubs reportedly monitoring the situation, the Imps are likely to hold out for a significant transfer fee if they decide to part ways with their star. Lincoln’s previous record-breaking transfer stands at £640,000 from the sale of Harry Toffolo to Huddersfield Town in 2020.
Erhahon, however, remains composed about his future at Lincoln, making it clear that any potential move must align with his career goals and Lincoln’s expectations.
“I have to see what happens in January. Director of football Jez George and people high up at the club sat with me and my agent and said if anyone meets our valuation, we’ll have a discussion,” he explained. “There’s no rush to move. I’m happy here and enjoy it. As soon as that summer window shut, it was about getting my head down and playing. We all agreed any move would have to be right for me and I wasn’t going to jump at the first offer.”
Erhahon expressed a pragmatic view on his ambitions in football, noting his desire to advance, whether through promotion with Lincoln City or potentially taking an opportunity elsewhere. Despite the allure of playing at a higher level, the midfielder values his strong relationship with Lincoln’s management and club officials.

Erhahon’s stance on his future reflects both ambition and loyalty—a balance Lincoln City fans will appreciate as they follow his potential transfer story. Lincoln appears to have established a solid foundation with Erhahon, which gives the club room to secure a valuable deal should interest from a club translate into an offer.
