Kevin Nolan: 'Notts County on lookout for free transfers after Mason Bennett surgery'

Kevin Nolan has admitted that Notts County are on the lookout for unattached players following Mason Bennett's season-ending injury but says "nobody has been standing out".

The on-loan Derby County striker has undergone surgery on an injured hamstring which forced him to limp out of the 1-0 defeat to Barnet last weekend.

“We spent a lot of hours trying to get Mason over and all we can hope for is that the operation has gone well for him and he gets his opportunities when he comes back,” Nolan told the Nottingham Post/

“If there is something to be done next season then we will discuss that, but the health of the lad is most important and we wish him well in his long recovery back.

“We’ve been looking at all possibilities (free transfers), but nobody at the minute has been standing out.

“We'll continue to look and see if we can pull one out of the hat. But if not then I'm delighted with the squad I’ve got. We’ve still got enough to do what we need to do.”
