Under embargo - Southend United (Image: FOCUS IMAGES)
SOUTHEND United are likely to remain under a transfer embargo until at least the first few weeks of November, Echosport understands.
Justin Rees and his consortium have agreed terms to take control of the Shrimpers.
But it is believed payments to lift the restrictions can not be processed until the takeover is officially completed.
Blues have been in a transfer embargo for the past 12 months but could be allowed to bring in a striker to replace the injured Callum Powell.
