SID Taylor is focusing his transfer targets on defenders going into the last few weeks of pre-season training.
Helston Athletic's manager has already brought in several new faces to the line-up ahead of their South West Peninsula League Premier Division debut, but he told the Packet he now wants to sure up the back line before their opening game next month.
"I'm looking for a defender or two at the moment," Taylor said.
"That is probably the only area on the field where we are a bit short in numbers and before the season begins, I would love to get in a centre half and left back.
"We've got plenty of talent in the midfield and I like to have as many options up front as possible, so now I'm just thinking about getting guys in to bolster the defence.
"I've put a few feelers out to see who is available, but at the moment there isn't anyone close to signing, but there's plenty of time to sort it."
