Charlton Athletic manager Nathan Jones says that they are aiming to make their winter recruitment moves as quickly as possible in the January transfer window.
And the Welshman has confirmed to South London Sport: Charlton Athletic Edition that
a left wing-back is a priority on their winter shopping list with Josh Edwards
(ankle) and Amari’i Bell (hamstring) injured.
Charlton are missing six first-teamers with Onel Hernandez
the latest to join the list that includes Matty Godden, Charlie Kelman, Reece
Burke, Edwards and Bell.
“We need a left wing-back to add competition, because that is
the one position we were light in anyway, but if I just get my squad back then
I’ve got zero problems. It is not a big wish list for Santa - it’s literally
‘can I get my squad back?’ Then we will be in a far better place.”
The absences of Kelman and Godden have been keenly felt.
Jones’ options have been reduced to Miles Leaburn or Isaac Olaofe as the main
striker with Tyreece Campbell playing slightly deeper.
Quick off the mark or not, getting value in the January
transfer window is more difficult than many are prepared to accept.
