Whether we'll come to an agreement I don't know, but we are talking about [a new deal]. Ideally he stays with us, but he has managed at a higher level, so he may want to keep his options open."Listen to the full interview, in which Newton also provides an update on the fourth stand at the Boston Community Stadium and more about Boston United on BBC Sounds.

Wrexham eye up new target as £7.5m record transfer deal in danger of falling through
Wrexham have made a club-record bid for Ipswich Town winger Nathan Broadhead as they look to bolster their squad ahead of the Championship season, but have a back-up plan just in case Wrexham might resort to a familiar face if their club-record £7.5million deal for Nathan Broadhead falls through. The Red Dragons have splashed the cash in the summer transfer window following their promotion from League One last season, with their total spending reportedly hitting eight figures. Manager Phil Parkinson has been backed heavily by Wrexham co-owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac, bringing in eight new faces so far. The former Bolton boss said this week that more signings could be on the cards as he aims to assemble a squad capable of holding its own in the Championship. The acquisition of a ninth player is on the cards as Wrexham chase Ipswich Town winger Broadhead, who began his football journey in the North Wales team's academy. If the move for the Welsh international gets the go-ahead, it would mark the third time Wrexham have broken their transfer record in the current window. READ MORE: Managing Wrexham as Ryan Reynolds smashes club transfer record and lands Ajax star Ipswich manager Kieran McKenna conceded this week that Broadhead has expressed a wish to move on. However, he was adamant that he wouldn't let the 27-year-old leave unless Ipswich's thin attacking ranks were bolstered. While Wrexham are willing to bide their time in their pursuit of Broadhead, reports suggest they do have a contingency plan should the deal fall through. As per the Daily Mail, Barnsley 's Davis Keillor-Dunn has caught the eye of Parkinson as a possible substitute. The forward shone in League One last season, bagging 18 goals and dishing out five assists, and had a stint with Wrexham in the National League back in 2020. Keillor-Dunn could be a more budget-friendly choice than Broadhead, with the Barnsley Chronicle claiming that he could be available for £5m. How long Wrexham are prepared to wait for a resolution on Broadhead's situation is still up in the air, but Ipswich manager McKenna recognised the player's eagerness to move during a press briefing on Wednesday. The former Manchester United coach said: "(There's) no update from what I said last week, really, with Nathan. He's expressed his desire to look at another opportunity that's been presented to him. "But at this moment with the position the club is in, it's not the right time or even a possible time for us to allow a good player to leave the building. We'll have to see how the situation plays out over the coming weeks." In response to queries about whether Broadhead will play in Ipswich's first Championship match against Birmingham on Friday night, he said: "He's been training and we're short in those positions. "He's missed some of the pre-season minutes, so he hasn't played quite as much, but he's in our plans for the weekend and there's every chance that we'll need a strong contribution from him." Broadhead has emerged as a prime target for Wrexham as they seek to wrap up their transfer dealings before the window shuts on September 1. The forward joined the Tractor Boys from Everton for £1.5m in January 2023 and played a crucial role in their remarkable consecutive promotions from League One and the Championship. During his stint at Ipswich, he has found the net 23 times in 83 outings, though he was restricted to merely seven Premier League starts last season. With Wrexham's pursuit of Broadhead still uncertain, Parkinson has acknowledged that his summer shopping spree remains incomplete. "I don't think we are there yet where we need to be," he told The Leader. "We have made quite a few signings but we still feel we need to add in a few areas. We have been close to a couple of deals and then they didn't happen for whatever reason but we are working on a few things. "We know the kind of template where we want the squad to look when we finish and we are working towards that. Sometimes patience is a virtue with these things."

Wrexham's plan B if record-breaking £7.5m transfer collapses with manager holding up deal
Wrexham's plan B if record-breaking £7.5m transfer collapses with manager holding up deal Wrexham may target a move for a former player if their record-breaking £7.5million move for Nathan Broadhead falls through, as they continue building for the Championship Wrexham co-owners Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds face a dilemma over their main summer transfer target (Image: Robbie Jay Barratt - AMA/Getty Images) Wrexham could turn to a familiar face if their club-record-breaking £7.5million deal for Nathan Broadhead falls through. The Red Dragons have spent big in the summer transfer window after being promoted from League One last season, with their total estimated outlay reaching an eight-figure sum. Manager Phil Parkinson has received significant funding from Wrexham co-owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac, bringing in eight new players to date. The former Bolton boss revealed this week that there could be more arrivals as well as he looks to build a squad capable of competing in the Championship. The purchase of a ninth player is on the horizon as Wrexham pursue a move for Broadhead, the Ipswich Town winger who started his career in the North Wales team's academy. If the deal for the Wales international receives the green light, it would see them break their transfer record for the third time during the current window. Ipswich manager Kieran McKenna admitted this week that Broadhead has expressed a desire to leave. However, he insisted he would not sanction the 27-year-old's departure unless the Tractor Boys' scarce attacking options are improved. While Wrexham are prepared to be patient in their pursuit of Broadhead, it's now being reported that they do have a back-up plan if the move collapses. According to the Daily Mail, Barnsley's Davis Keillor-Dunn is being eyed by Parkinson as a potential alternative. The forward was one of the standout performers in League One last term, scoring 18 goals and providing five assists, and previously had a brief spell with Wrexham in the National League in 2020.

It remains unclear how long Wrexham are willing to wait for Broadhead's future to be decided, but Ipswich boss McKenna acknowledged the player's preference to make the switch at a press conference on Wednesday. The ex-Manchester United coach said: "(There's) no update from what I said last week, really, with Nathan. He's expressed his desire to look at another opportunity that's been presented to him.

"But at this moment with the position the club is in, it's not the right time or even a possible time for us to allow a good player to leave the building. We'll have to see how the situation plays out over the coming weeks." When asked if Broadhead will feature in Ipswich's opening Championship game against Birmingham on Friday night, he added: "He's been training and we're short in those positions. "He's missed some of the pre-season minutes, so he hasn't played quite as much, but he's in our plans for the weekend and there's every chance that we'll need a strong contribution from him." Broadhead has been identified as a key target for Wrexham as they look to finalise their business before the transfer window closes on September 1. He signed for the Tractor Boys from Everton for £1.5m in January 2023 and was instrumental in helping them achieve back-to-back promotions from League One and the Championship.
