John Pemberton is hoping to add a third new signing to his Chesterfield squad.
He has already brought in Burnley defender Jordan Cropper and Notts County goalkeeper Ross Fitzsimons on loan deals until the end of the season.
The Derbyshire Times understand he is looking at the possibility of signing a striker with Mike Fondop suspended for the next three matches.
But one player he is hoping to sign will only become available when his parent club bring someone else in.
