Bristol Rovers are "down the line" in negotiations with several transfer targets, manager Joey Barton has said.
Barton wants to make widespread additions to his squad by the time the window closes at the end of the month, with the need for signings heightened by his decision to exile Trevor Clarke, Zain Westbrooke and Alex Rodman from his first-team squad this week. The trio have been told they have no future at the Mem and to find new clubs.
The Gas boss has previously indicated he wanted seven additions to his squad by the end of trading on August 31, with needs in most area of the pitch.
