SR has done another video that's available on Twitter and suggests that there is an additional 3 players to come in,

Goalkeeper; Midfield and a Striker.

He doesn't rule out the possible addition of another loanee depending on what he thinks we still need after a few preseason games and who is available on loan that would be advantageous to the squad.

Still no mention of any more preseason games although I seem to recall SR saying in an earlier interview that a match was scheduled for their final day at Worcester (today :?: ) where the facilities have been superb.

Sounds like the goalkeeper is likely to be Andresson given SR thinks they're close to completing a deal.

I'd assume the midfielder would probably be a defensive one, possibly one comfortable dropping in at centre back as it would be good to have extra cover there. I'd make a case that we don't want four 'starter' centre backs all expecting loads of game time, so the fourth option being a defensive midfielder who can drop in seems like it might be good for squad harmony.

I'd assume the striker would be a 'something different' kind of player in contrast to Stockton/Obika, who will more likely be target/link play strikers.

All guess work though! Exciting to see who we bring in.
