Bristol Rovers are expected to sign a striker in the January transfer window.
Bristol Rovers are ‘likely’ to move for a number nine this winter, as detailed in a report by Bristol Live.
Joey Barton could look to add more competition and depth to his options up top for the second-half of the season.
The Pirates have lacked a bit of a cutting edge going forward since dropping into League Two.
Bristol Rovers comment: Three players Joey Barton should sign in January
How are they doing?
The Gas started the season slowly but have started to pick up some results recently.
They have lost just once in their last seven league games and are currently unbeaten in their last three matches in all competitions.
Tranmere draw
Barton’s side were disappointed over the weekend though as they threw away a 2-0 lead at home to Tranmere Rovers to draw 2-2.
Josh Grant and Sam Nicholson struck early in the first-half, only for the visitors to fight back with goals from Calum MacDonald and Paul Glatzel.
Week ahead
Bristol Rovers are currently sat in 14th place in the league table and are only four points off the Play-Offs.
They have a busy week ahead now and have tough back-to-back games at Salford City and Forest Green Rovers.
