Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers is eager to settle the future of Filip Benkovic.
Rodgers hopes a resolution over the future of Benkovic, linked with Derby and Bristol City, will come in the next few days.
But he's hoping to sign someone first.
"We were hopeful that would come sooner but it should come in the next few days as he needs games.
"We're hopeful of getting someone in before the window in order to allow him to go out on loan."
