Mansfield Town manager Billy Dearden has failed in his bid to bring a new defender to the club on loan before the League Two encounter with Wycombe Wanderers.
A deal had been agreed for the unnamed player, who then picked up an injury in training.
"They aren't sure if these knocks will clear up in time for the weekend, so they're holding back on the move as they don't want to leave themselves short," Dearden told the Chad.
"That's our luck at the moment. We got kicked in the teeth with the lad at Crewe. There's nothing we can do and we'll just have to see what's what on Monday."
