The Seasiders are testing the resolve of Oxford United as the look to land Cameron Brannagan.
Pool, who recently lost midfielder Grant Ward to a long-term injury and are already without Matty Virtue, have reportedly identified Brannagan as a top target in the final two days of the transfer window.
Neil Critchley’s men, who are also being strongly linked with a loan move for Chelsea right-back Dujon Sterling, have until 11pm on Tuesday night to conclude their business.
Meanwhile, Huddersfield Town and Coventry City are battling it out for the signature of Bradford’s Elliot Watt, Reading have agreed a deal with former Crystal Palace defender Scott Dann and Barnsley could be set to make a double swoop before the window shuts.
Sheffiled United are expected to have a busy deadline day with the Blades expected to try and get another three deals over the line following last night’s signing of Conor Hourihane.
