Gallen has provided this update to supporters: “We are trying, we are in the market for the better players we can get – but there is also competition. 

“Hopefully the next week or two it will fall into place and there will be a few more and then I can see a few more potentially during pre-season and then, as always, right at the end of the transfer window there will be one or two deals to be had as well.”

He added: “We can’t just wait until the end because our squad is not that big. We have to do some business now. But that’s how I see the process – a bit before pre-season, a bit during it and a bit right at the end.”
