Matt Grimes will likely kick onto another club this summer. Doesn’t take a rocket scientist to suspect Luca Connell will be viewed as his replacement as a priority by Duff. 

Would make sense.

How many managers bring in players from their former clubs? These days it really doesn't happy very often at all. Which makes sense given that clubs have their own scouting and analytics teams. 

It happens a bit. In the context of Grimes potentially leaving it would make perfect sense too, replace one left-footed deep-lying playmaker with another.
We're decent enough..

Yup regardless of Michael Duff managing Connell would be prominent on any list of players to replace a player like Grimes. 

Just makes sense similar to Cullen going to Burnley made sense last year.

long story short potential issues for Barnsley. 

Might help see Connell kick on up a division.

Has reportedly put pen to paper on a new 4 year contract at Barnsley, so maybe that puts any transfer rumours to bed.

Four years plus an option of a fifth in the club's favour - doesn't sound like he'll be going anywhere any time soon.

The other side to that is tie him down to a longer contract to increase any potential transfer fee

They'll get hit with a points deduction but will likely be suspended. Same happened to Birmingham this season.

Hadn't featured in any of the Barnsley squads so far this season. Manager gave an update this morning that Luca is dealing with an illness and while it's improving slowly there's no definitive timescale regarding his return.

Seen that.
Hopefully he has fully recovered from his illness and get back playing regular again.
