Notts County make transfer decision as defender linked on deadline day

Notts County are not planning any further arrivals before the National League's transfer deadline today.

The Magpies have until 5pm to add to their squad for the final time this season as they prepare for a thrilling conclusion in the chase to return to the Football League.

Notts yesterday wrapped up the signing of Sheffield United defender Sam Graham on loan until the end of the season after Richard Brindley was ruled out for six weeks with a fractured arm.

His arrival followed the capture of Nottingham Forest midfielder Harry Arter who is also on loan for the remainder of the campaign in what was a major coup for the National League side.

They are likely to be the only arrivals for Notts before the deadline shuts with clubs across the division weighing up their options.

Notts had been linked with Kidderminster defender Geraldo Bajrami but the club's capture of Graham has now seemingly put a move for the centre-back on the backburner until the summer at least.

The 22-year-old is out of contract at the end of the season and has caught the eye this term following a series of excellent performances.

Notts had also shown an interest in Harriers captain Sam Austin earlier this season after he played an instrumental role in their magnificent FA Cup run.
