No confirmation from a better source though.

However, I note IF it is true it would be a 4th signing over 6ft.....
And you used to hang on his every word. Harlot. Strumpet. Flibbertigibbet............ :D

Unless they'd already scouted him. :-)
Aye. But seems unlikely.

Iles says no signing imminent but a few due in on trial, one of who could be this lad.

He's a good source but not as good as when he was mates with our managers.

In for a trial. Along with three others. Shirdel, recommended to the club by Ivan Klasnic.

The fourth of the quartet is Guinea Bissau-born Agostinho Ca, a defensive midfielder who has played previously for Barcelona B and has some experience in the Segunda Division.

From the BN:

Meanwhile, Wanderers are casting their eye over 6ft 5in former MSV Duisburg goalkeeper Timothy “Seny” Dieng.

The Zurich-born 21-year-old has been brought in to Lostock this week for a trial, initially working with the development squad.

Dieng came through the ranks at Swiss club Grasshoppers and earned a senior call-up to the Senegal squad in 2014 before moving on a free transfer to Duisburg in February.

Sounds huge but not freakish for keepers these days. Bogdan's 6ft 5in, so's Joe Hart, Fraser Forster's 6ft 7in. This lad's 2in taller than Ben Amos, though.

this activity puts to bed the idea that we'd never be able to sign anyone and had to stick with what we'd got... which is good! :D

OFFER REJECTED: Unnamed PL club (probably Bournemouth) outbid Arsenal for Holding, but Ken&Dean stand firm. (per BN)
