PHIL Parkinson is ready to press the button on signings the moment Wanderers’ transfer embargo is cleared.

The Whites boss has lined up three players in the hope of completing a deal before the team flies out to Scandinavia on Sunday evening.

Parkinson has been strongly linked with free agents Jamie Proctor, Mark Beevers and Chris Taylor in recent weeks but has spoken to several alternatives as he looks to bolster key positions in his squad.

Wanderers fly out to Copenhagen, Denmark, before setting up a training camp across the Swedish border in Malmo.

And Parkinson hopes to have a couple of new faces in the team hotel if the club can reach an agreement with the Football League to have their transfer restrictions relaxed.

“I think it needs to be resolved but it’s moving in the right direction, which is good news for the club,” he told The Bolton News.

“I have agreed a few deals for players but they won’t wait forever. We need some closure on them by the weekend and ideally I’d like some of them on the plane with me on Sunday night.

“Everyone is working towards that and the club can’t do any more than it is doing at this moment in time.

“John Pelling and Paul Aldridge are working towards it with the chairman and he’s in constant dialogue with the Football League.

“I understand things take time and I am doing everything I can to make sure that key players are going to be there for us.”

On Tyler Garratt’s move to Doncaster, Parkinson said the lure of guaranteed first-team football in League Two was decisive.

“It was a deal that was in place before I came,” he said. “I did have a chat with him but I think his mind was set – he’d been told he would be number one left-back and I couldn’t say to him that he’d start here. Once a player’s head has moved away from a club it’s the right thing to let him go.”

On the subject of more sales, he added: “It will take time but I said when I came here that the squad would need reshaping considerably. I think there will be a lot of movement in the next few weeks.”
