Town boss Paul Jewell revealed that Sean St Ledger’s move to the Blues is on hold until after Leicester’s FA Cup replay against Nottingham Forest next Tuesday.
Jewell said: "Leicester have got an FA Cup replay against Nottingham Forest, which they must only just have remembered because now they want to keep him for that.
"I think everything was agreed, I don’t know whether they’ve had any injuries in training, but they told us last night that they want to keep him because they play Notts Forest in the cup next week.”
The Blues boss says he could now move on to other targets but needs to speak to Foxes boss Nigel Pearson: "We have got other irons in the fire but that was one which we thought was going to happen but it hasn’t.
"We’ll have to wait and see. We think Sean’s a good player but if they beat Nottingham Forest they might want him for the next round, I’m not really sure. I’ll have to speak with Nigel.”
Jewell says there is no news on any other targets and says he’s heard nothing regarding Alania Vladikavkaz’s interest in striker Tamás Priskin: "We want to bring players in full-time, not just loan players, so we are actively looking at the market to try and strengthen the squad.”
