Star Cumbrians Dean Henderson and Jarrad Branthwaite are keen to make transfer moves this summer, according to latest reports.
And that could be music to the ears of Carlisle United who stand to benefit from any big money moves involving the duo.
Everton defender Branthwaite has been linked with a number of clubs after his impressive loan spell with PSV Eindhoven.
Football Insider today report the Wigton star, who turned 21 today, has told the Goodison Park club he wants to leave this summer.
It follows a reported approach from West Ham United, while previous reports have linked him with clubs such as Manchester United, Liverpool and Roma.
Branthwaite is currently with the England Under-21 squad at the European Championships.
There have been recent indications that Everton want to keep the ex-Carlisle United star but growing interest in Branthwaite is unlikely to go away.
Goalkeeper Henderson, meanwhile, remains eager to make a permanent move away from Manchester United.
That's according to the Manchester Evening News, who have described the Whitehaven star as "perplexed" by suggestions he could remain at Old Trafford.
It comes amid uncertainty over the future of first choice Man Utd No1 David de Gea.
The Spaniard's contract situation remains unresolved with the club known to be in the market for another senior keeper.
Henderson impressed on loan at Forest last season before suffering a thigh injury that ended his season.
He is expected to be back for pre-season, with conflicting reports about his chances of getting the first-team gloves should de Gea move on.
Carlisle would be in line for sell-on proceeds in the event of big-money moves involving former Blues academy stars Henderson and Branthwaite, who left Brunton Park in 2011 and 2020 respectively.
