The Reds’ boss has previously said he is looking for a full-back and a striker to boost his squad during the January transfer window.

Drummy was hopeful of securing a deal this week but he has backed out because of disagreement over the player’s valuation.

He said: “At this time we have agents offering suitable players to the club.

“It can be a matter of how much I want to pay for someone and if I think they are worth it.

“A deal fell through yesterday when I shut the door on that.

“We have second and third targets and we will have to wait to see what comes up - and often it can be a surprise.”
