Doncaster Rovers boss Grant McCann makes ‘close’ admission as he issues update on contract renewals.
Foundations for next season are already being laid at the Eco-Power Stadium, with new deals having already been handed to Richard Wood, James Maxwell, Zain Westbrooke and Ben Close.
The club do not appear to be resting on their laurels, moving to negotiate with other members of the squad. Speaking ahead of this weekend’s trip to Morecambe, McCann said: “I had a positive meeting with Terry [Bramall, chairman] and Gavin [Baldwin, chief executive] yesterday, talking about all sorts of different topics really and trying to improve us for moving forward.
“Obviously, one of the conversations was contract renewals, incomings for next season, things like this. There’s others that we’d like to keep, of course there is, we’re working hard to try to do that. Are we close? I think we could be close with one or two. We’ll see when we get this sorted but we’re working hard to try and keep one or two, and possibly three more players.”
