Bristol City boss Gary Johnson claims he is "very close" to making a double swoop in the transfer market.

The Robins have two players in the pipeline and another pair could follow soon after if contract talks are successful.

Johnson is loathe to alert other clubs to his business so is keeping his cards close to his chest, but he is confident of adding to his options imminently.

He told the club's website: "Our supporters understand why we don't mention any names, it wouldn't be right to do that yet, but rest assured we are working very hard behind the scenes.

"It's very close now. There is a lot of speculation in the papers at the moment and there are a lot of players that we are said to be interested in that we aren't.

"A lot of people like to drum up a bit of business by speculating on their own players and agents often like to do so as well.

"We'll keep things under our hat and reveal things when it's the right time."
