Addicks interest in Apter confirmed

Blackpool boss Steve Bruce - on Charlton interest in Rob Apter - told a local journo: "We’ve had conversations with Charlton, but where it’s at, I really don’t know - that’s for others to talk about.”

“We don’t want to sell Rob, but we all know in football that everyone has their price. Whether there’s any more developments, I’m not too sure.”

“He’s a dying breed. He’s one of those that can go past people and make something happen. None of us want him to go, but it’s football. It’s obviously a difficult situation, for Rob he could get to the Championship."

A price of £2.5m has been rumoured.

Richard Cawley reports that Nathan Jones confirms that Charlton will loan out one of their two young strikers - Micah Mbick or Dan Kanu.
