At Blackpool, new boss Michael Appleton has yet to add new faces to his squad while eight players have been released after their contracts at Bloomfield Road expired.
The tastes of Ethan Robsonwho has since joined League One outfit MK Dons, and winger Grant Ward find themselves on the free agent list after leaving the Seasiders.
