Shrewsbury Town boss Gary Peters continues to be frustrated in his attempts to boost his squad with the signing of a new striker.
Millwall's Ben May is the latest frontman to turn down the chance to join the Shrews, who are keen to get among the play-off hunt in League Two.
Peters told the Shropshire Star: "We had a bid accepted for Ben May, but his agent rang me to say that he is hoping to go to a Championship club.
"With the others, Liam Hatch would have cost too much when Peterborough became interested and (Accrington Stanley's) Paul Mullin wouldn't have been good business as a whole package.
"Scott Vernon hit form and got back into the Blackpool team and Richard Walker wants to stay at Bristol Rovers and get back in the team, because he has worked hard to get promoted."
