DEAN Holden looks set to agree to a loan deal at the third time of asking.

The Wanderers' full-back, who has turned down "temp" jobs at FC Haka in Finland and Rochdale, was training with Oldham Athletic with a view to joining the Second Division club.

Holden has made a full recovery after breaking his leg 18 months ago ago but a shortage of match practice has stalled his challenge for a first team place.
