‘A lot of options’…

Johnson has said: “We’re in a good position to go and strengthen again in January, and that doesn’t necessarily mean throwing fortunes at it.

“It can mean manipulating your current squad or bringing back players who are out on loan like Jack Diamond or Josh Hawkes, who have been doing extremely well. We’ve got a lot of options.”

He is currently a key man for Harrogate and they will be desperate not to lose him in January.

He has chipped in with four goals in 14 league games so far this season.
