ALTY are on the verge of wrapping up another signing that will further signal their intent for the coming season.

A forward with experience in both the Football League and the Blue Square Premier has agreed terms on a move to Moss Lane and is expected to put pen to paper tonight (Thursday night).

He will become the third forward to arrive at the club this summer, adding yet more firepower to an attacking arsenal that looked somewhat tame at times last season.

Manager Graham Heathcote has already promised to bring more attractive football to Moss Lane in the coming season and he believes his dealings in the transfer market so far prove he is ready to deliver on that vow.

He told SAM Sport: “There is not going to be much difference in how we will prepare for the new season but we will approach games differently because we have different types of players.

"I said I wanted to play slightly differently so I have recruited players that will allow us to do that.

"There are a lot of attacking options that we have taken on board but, at the end of the day, we do still have to make sure we stay tight at the back."
