Keates Granted Wish

17th January 2006

As
The Forgotten Imp revealed on Saturday, midfielder Dean Keates has indeed submitted a written transfer request and as we revealed yesterday, there was a meeting yesterday afternoon to discuss his request.

Unfortunately, we can now tell you that Keates' transfer request has been granted following yesterday's meeting between Imps' boss Keith Alexander and the club's board.

Alexander confirmed: "Dean is going through a very difficult time in his personal life at the moment and we must respect his wishes."

So far, only Walsall have been linked to Keates, so a move might not materialise because Walsall are reportedly reluctant to pay Lincoln's £25,000 valuation of Keates.

So far, Keates has made 24 appearances for Lincoln, scoring 4 goals since he joined in July 2005.
