Ian Evatt says that Bolton Wanderers will consider allowing players within the squad to leave on loan to get game time under their belts if a potential move is right for the Whites.
The window slams shut at 11pm on Thursday, September 1, and Wanderers are still seeking to make additions if the right opportunities emerge. The Whites have made four signings so far this summer.
Eoin Toal and Jack Iredale have joined on permanent deals. James Trafford and Conor Bradley have signed up for the season on loan from Manchester City and Liverpool respectively.

Wanderers are still seeking the possibility of transfer window incomings this summer before the window slams shut. Evatt cannot promise any business being done but the Whites are still looking.
As part of that, loan outgoings at the University of Bolton Stadium could be a prospect. Though Evatt says there are no players he wants to leave the club, he recognises some may feel they have a better chance of game time elsewhere and Wanderers will seek to make that happen providing it is right for them.
Evatt said: “There’s nobody really that we would say we want to leave or we want to go out on loan, but I also understand that players want game time and we can’t give it to everybody.
So we have to be fair and if someone comes and knocks on my door saying I’d really like to leave, I’d like to go here, then we’ll look at it and it’s right for us, that’s the key, if it’s right for us, then we may allow that to happen and then look to strengthen.
"It just depends because we need to balance the squad out and we’ve got a lot of players at the moment."
