Town are reported to be ready to sign Charlton striker Jonatan Johansson in the January transfer window as a temporary replacement for the injured Sam Parkin. Boss Joe Royle watched the 30-year-old Finnish international in action against the Town reserves at the Valley on Wednesday.

Johansson, a trialist at Portman Road back in 1997 prior to his spell with Glasgow Rangers, is not currently in Alan Curbishley's plans and is looking to move on.
