Yates welcomes competition
Established right-back Adam Yates says he’d welcome competition if Micky Adams was to bring a new defender into his squad.
Adams has made it clear that he views another right-back as a priority and Yates told the Sentinel: “I think every player in the squad needs competition for their place and I’m no exception. The boss has already looked at a couple of lads and things haven’t worked out one way or another but I still expect him to look to bring one in.
“I’m up for the fight of course and you also have to accept that the times of people playing 50 or 60 games a year are a thing of the past, it’s more of a squad game these days.”
