THE transfer window isn’t too far away and the League One rumour mill is already in full swing.

Many clubs are looking to bolster their squads before the new season gets underway, while others will be hoping to keep hold of their prized assets.

There are also plenty of out-of-contract players searching for new clubs, with sides across the Football League publishing their retained lists.

Wanderers have already been active on the transfer front, bringing in former Cambridge full-back Jack Iredale on a free transfer.
