I'd try get Craig Gardner to use his Man U connections again to try and get Vitek on a permanent. I think we need 2 new starting centre mids, while Paik is technically very good I genuinely don't think he has ever ran a game at this level and he only has 1 assist this season which isn't enough for our most creative midfielder.
In:
Radek Vitek on a perm if poss, Pierce Charles from Sheff Weds wouldn't be a bad shout either but not sure if he is too short.
Left sided centre half- (Mika Marmol would be a free transfer) or Ethan Pinnock who is left footed and very experienced in english football.
combatative midfielder (Solis if the price is right, if not I'd love Eric Martel who would be another free transfer)
Paik replacement- Would love us to test Watfords resolve for Imran Louza but would probably cost too much (Jordan James would have made sense but don't think he wants to come back)
Left Winger- Osman if we can get him back on a deal that works for us whether it be a loan or a perm with a low fee and a high resell %, if not I think we could go for Mehmeti from Ipswich (can also play in the 10) as I think they will be looking to sign better even though they only signed him in Jan
Attacking Mid/10- Would like us to look at someone like Alfie Devine or Mukasa on loan, Callum O'Hare Would be a good addition too. Outside shout would be Joel Piroe from Leeds.
Striker- Think we need another big mobile striker to rotate with Priske as he won't be able to start 46 games next season, Ellis Simms I doubt will be playing much for Cov next year but seems unlikely that one, Lankshear from Spurs on loan? Another wildcard shout would be Mateusz Zukowski who has 17 goals and 3 assists in 19 games in the 2nd tier of Germany.

Solis/Martel
Louza
Osman
Alfie Devine/O'Hare
Simms/Lankshear
