League One continues to feel the knock-on effects of Championship interest and January planning, with several clubs either bracing for exits or moving early to secure key figures.
Below is the latest League One roundup from around the division, with Barnsley, Mansfield Town, Blackpool and Northampton Town all featuring prominently as the window develops.
Northampton explore permanent deal for Taylor
Northampton Town have opened preliminary talks over making Terry Taylor’s loan move permanent, according to a report from the Northampton Chronicle.
The midfielder, currently on loan from Charlton Athletic, has been one of the Cobblers’ standout performers, starting 22 consecutive league matches. While a January deal is considered unlikely, Taylor is out of contract in the summer and remains a priority target.
Manager Kevin Nolan has acknowledged the club’s desire to keep the 24-year-old long-term, though any agreement may depend on finances and timing. For Northampton, securing Taylor permanently would represent a statement of intent as they look to build stability and progression within League One.
