Nigel Pearson has been refreshingly vocal of late about his transfer desires ahead for the summer and, to his credit, one of the Bristol City manager’s maxims is to try and be open and honest with fans.
Having previously stated a longing for a proper defensive midfielder and a genuine right-back who can also play wing-back, the Robins boss stated earlier this month that the middle of defence will be a priority for him.
“Our main objective still is to have dominant centre-backs that can deal with the demands of the game," Pearson said. “We thought we were relatively strong, we've underachieved this year. So that remains the priority."
