Huddersfield Town and Coventry City are battling it out for the signature of Bradford’s Elliot Watt.

Barnsley could be set to get two more deals over the line before the window shuts while Hull City, working under difficult circumstances, could be bringng a familiar face back to the MKM Stadium for a second loan spell.

Meanwhile, Reading have agreed a deal with former Crystal Palace defender Scott Dann and Sheffiled United are expected to have a busy deadline day with the Blades expected to try and get another three deals over the line following last night’s signing of Conor Hourihane.

Also working to get deals done are Blackpool who could be set to splash the cash on a League 1 star and Preston North End who are on the hunt for a striker.

Blackburn Rovers are close to a deal for Lincoln City full back Tayo Edun which should be completed well in advance of the window closing. The England youth international looks set for a move to the Championship after just one full season with the Imps (FLW)
