Parry is keen to boost his strikeforce before the transfer window closes and had enquired about Liverpool youngster Nathan Eccleston.[LNB]However, Eccleston has instead joined League One rivals Huddersfield, leaving Vernon as Tranmere's main target and Parry said: "We've approached Colchester United for Scott Vernon and are negotiating that.[LNB]"I think there are four or five clubs in for him and I think they'll see who will pay what they want towards his wages then give the lad the choice.[LNB]"We have made numerous enquiries and had hoped that Nathan Ecclestone from Liverpool would be coming to join us but unfortunately he picked Huddersfield.[LNB]"We approached Manchester United for a striker and they want to keep hold of him. But we've still got two irons in the fire."[LNB][LNB]
