Red Dragons flying high in League TwoHave tied key men to new contractsMay not need to spend before the summerWHAT HAPPENED?
The Red Dragons continue to be linked with a number of players and will keep their options until until the next deadline passes on February 1. There may be movement before then, in and out, with co-owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney eager to ensure that Parkinson’s squad is in the best possible shape.

Wrexham have been able to tie key men Elliot Lee and Paul Mullin down on new contracts, while retaining the services of Arsenal loanee Arthur Okonkwo through to the end of the season. It seems they are happy with the business that has been done in-house at SToK Racecourse.
WHAT PARKINSON SAID
Parkinson has suggested that he would have no complaints at working with what he has already got, saying when asked if any more deals are in the pipeline: “Elliot Lee and Paul Mullin have signed new contracts, we've kept Arthur, that's a very good window so far. If we do make an addition or two, that will be a bonus. It's important to use the window to also keep what you've got.”
Getty/GOALWHAT NEXT FOR WREXHAM?
Wrexham may decide that the best approach is to reassess their recruitment options in the summer, rather than spend again at this point. The club are looking to wrap up another promotion that would carry them into League One and make another injection of quality essential in the next window.
