Wright keen to see embargo lifted

Chester City manager Mark Wright hopes the Football League lift their transfer embargo on the League Two club as soon as possible so he can add to his squad.

The embargo has been in place since June, when the Professional Footballer Association claimed some players at the Deva Stadium had not been paid.

"There's still an embargo on the club," Wright told BBC Radio Merseyside.

"We're meeting on Thursday with the chairman and board to look through it. If we can turn it round, that's great."

Wright was speaking after Tuesday's 2-2 draw with fellow strugglers Luton Town which saw his side battle back from two goals down to pick up a point.

He says he knows what he needs to strengthen his squad and has made a new target man his priority.

"The players that we've highlighted that we want in, and that we could get in, are real good players," Wright explained.

"We need someone that can hold the ball up top and make it stick so we can get around teams.

"At this moment in time that is not really happening. The ball is coming back too quickly."
