No loan moves for Shrewsbury after Aaron Wildig injury

Shrewsbury Town boss Graham Turner is unlikely to dip back into the loan market this week to bolster his squad following Aaron Wildig's knee injury.

Turner is expecting to be without the midfielder for several months if, as suspected, it is confirmed that he has damaged his posterior cruciate knee ligament.

Wildig was stretchered off in Saturda's 1-0 home over Notts County following a foul by Andre Boucard.

With the emergency loan window set to close on Thursday, time is running out to bring in extra cover in midfield.

But Turner is satisfied with the options at his disposal in that area, which include Nicky Wroe, Dave McAllister and right-back Ryan Woods, who learnt his trade as a central midfielder.

Turner said: "We have got Nicky Wroe, we have got Dave McAllister and we have also got Ryan Woods who can play in there so the probability is, as midfield players go, we are OK."
