Parkinson targets more signings in 'difficult' window

[Getty Images] Phil Parkinson confirmed Wrexham are targeting more signings in what he says is proving to be a "difficult" summer transfer window. The Red Dragons have already brought in full-back Danny Imray, goalkeeper Anthony Patterson and central midfielder Ben Whiteman to the Racecourse Ground so far this summer. They have also allowed a number of players to leave either on loan or permanently, including Lewis Brunt, Arthur Okonkwo, Ryan Barnett, Mo Faal and Ryan Hardie. "It's proving difficult, I have to say. It really is," said the Wrexham manager when asked about the need for new recruits. "We're trying, but equally, we've got a decent squad. "I'm not saying we won't succeed, but the clock is ticking and it's just not easy for various situations. "But like I've been saying all summer, I want to make sure that our focus is on the ones we've got in the building and we've got a good squad. "We need these players back fit, the ones who are out injured and we'll see where it takes us next week." Wrexham have just over a week left to further bolster their ranks ahead of the 23:00 BST transfer deadline on Tuesday, 1 September. Having opted against outlining which positions he wants to strengthen, Parkinson stated the club are aiming for at least two more additions. "I don't really want to talk about positions. I've said all along that ideally we want a couple more players in the building," added Parkinson. "We've got very close to a couple of those deals happening and for one or two reasons they've fallen down. "But that is part of the highs and lows of the transfer window. "Of course, like everybody, we'd like a few more signings. "If we get them, great. If we don't, there's opportunities and players who haven't figured in the first couple of games who are eager to show everybody that they can make their mark here."
