David Artell has told the club’s official website that it could be an exciting end to the summer transfer window.

The Alex boss and his staff are working hard behind the scenes to bring in fresh reinforcements ahead of the new season with a centre-half and centre forward remaining top priorities.

Artell told the club’s official website: “We continue to work behind the scenes and it is coming along. When we have some news then the fans will be the first to know.

“It could be an exciting few days and weeks and we will keep working on it.”
