Shrewsbury Town look to move players on

Shrewsbury Town manager Graham Turner admits he will have to ship players out of the Greenhous Meadow as he bids to freshen up his squad during the transfer window.

Former loan midfielder David McAllister is understood to have been given permission by Sheffield United boss Danny Wilson to hold talks with Turner over a return to the club.

Town have already signed defender Yado Mambo and midfielder Steve McGinn on loan, but there are likely to be departures to keep the wage bill in check.

Terry Gornell is the most obvious exit, after the striker scored five times in eight appearances at Rochdale.

Dale boss John Coleman will at least extend the striker's loan for a second time but may be persuaded to broker a permanent deal, with former Manchester City trainee Ashley Grimes heading in the opposite direction.

And several players currently on the fringe of the action such as Aaron Wildig and Asa Hall could also be targeted for loan moves away from the club.

Turner said: "If we bring in what we want it is important we try to keep the size of the squad and wage bill balanced.

"We may also try to get some of the players some quality game time. So there would be the prospect if we can bring some in of allowing one or two to go out on loan.
