Carlisle United boss Greg Abbott has revealed that Town have made a loan enquiry regarding an unnamed member of their squad. Yesterday, Blues boss Roy Keane revealed that he is targeting two players before Thursday’s loan deadline.
Abbott said: "There has been a question asked about one of our players, and we are aware of the speculation, but we are very much focused on what is a tough run of fixtures at this moment in time."
The Carlisle squad contains no obvious striker target - although Vincent Pericard has previously played in the Premier League with Portsmouth and in the Championship with various clubs — but does include central midfielder Graham Kavanagh and full-back Ian Harte, both of whom were in Roy Keane’s Sunderland squad.
