How Doncaster Rovers will proceed in the final few weeks of the transfer window

Boss Darren Moore remains keen to add one or two more players to the group before the transfer deadline on October 16.

And the attention of the club’s recruitment team will fall on players available for loan as Rovers proceed with caution due to the on-going financial uncertainty without matchday revenue, their main source of income.

Clubs are braced to be without fans in stadiums for the foreseeable future after the government halted plans for a staggered return from October 1.

Loans potentially provide access to a higher quality of player for a much lower cost due to agreements with parent clubs over wages and financial incentives from development plans.

Rovers are confident their growing reputation as an ideal place to blood youngsters will see them land top promising talent from the Championship and Premier League in particular.

Moore is also willing to bring in more loanees than he would be permitted to name in a matchday squad.

The Rovers boss ended last season with six loanees - one more than he was able to name in a squad.

And he is understood to be prepared to repeat the move in order to bolster his squad.

Rovers currently have four loanees on their books - Josef Bursik, Taylor Richards, Rayhaan Tulloch and Tyreece John-Jules.

Moore hopes to add cover at right back and central midfield, with more versatility the better.
