Manager Ian Holloway has encountered frustration in his efforts to bring in fresh faces due to the clubs rigid wage and transfer structure.

But now he has finally added to his squad, securing deals for Craig Cathcart, Ludovic Sylvestre, Elliot Grandin and Malaury Martin.

Cathcart arrives from Manchester United, where he made no first team appearances, on a three-year deal for an undisclosed fee.

Former Barcelona youngster Ludovic Sylvestre has moved from Czech Republic side Mlada Boleslav, the midfielder accepting a two-year deal with the option of a third, again for an undisclosed fee.

French midfielder Martin has earned a one-year contract with Holloway’s side after the former Monaco youth impressed on trial in pre-season.

And the signings are completed by the capture of Grandin, with the French winger joining on a two-year contract, with the option of a further 12 months, from CSKA Sofia.
