Town chief scout Steve McCall and first team coach Bryan Klug are reported to be off to Prague this week to look at a defender. The Blues are keen to add a centre-half to their squad and are already keeping an eye on former trialist César Navas's recovery from a broken metatarsal.

The Czech-based defender is understood to have played international football. West Ham's Calum Davenport is also speculated to be a possible target.

Town complete their pre-season programme this evening at Dartford (KO 7.45pm). Sylvain Legwinski, Matt Richards and Gary Roberts are all expected to be involved in a side which is likely to be similar to the team which faced Leiston in Friday's floodlight failure affected game.
