Ebbsfleet United manager Liam Daish finding transfer progress a challenge

Transfer dealings are proving a challenge for Liam Daish as the Ebbsfleet manager gears up for a Sunday lunchtime date at Woking.

However, the Fleet boss (pictured) has not given up on adding to his squad during the January window, which still has three weeks to run.

Daish said: "I’m going through my list of targets but it’s been difficult to attract the player we need. The player has a say in things as well. It’s difficult but it’s not for the want of trying.

"The lads are doing the best they can and I’m trying to get help for them regarding other players coming in but that’s been difficult."

Ebbsfleet, without a win in their last six league games, travel to Kingfield looking to beat the Cards on their own patch for the second time this season.

Moses Ashikodi scored a late winner when the Fleet knocked Woking out of the FA Cup in October but the striker will be absent on Sunday.

Daish confirmed the 25-year-old will need a scan on his injured knee, which has not healed as quickly as the club hoped. Ashikodi has not played since the Fleet’s 4-1 defeat at Mansfield on December 8.

Meanwhile, Daish is hoping his strikers can rediscover their form in front of goal after missing several chances in last weekend’s 1-1 draw with Lincoln.

The result left Ebbsfleet just a point off the bottom of Blue Square Bet Premier. Woking sit 15th and they come into the game on the back of a 3-1 win over Luton.

Sunday’s game kicks-off at 1pm.
