Aspin has seen Danny Holland and Jim Provett leave so far this season

Harrogate Town manager Neil Aspin has said he believes he could lose midfielder Nathan Peat.

Aspin is aware players could still leave Wetherby Road despite the squad being taken off the transfer list.

Peat scored in Town's 3-2 win at Kings Lynn and Aspin told BBC Radio York: "Several clubs are in for him."

"He's obviously had a lot of interest from other clubs, I desperately would like him to stay but I think it could be out of my hands."

Aspin added: "He's a player I don't want to lose and especially with the size of the squad here - tonight [against King's Lynn] we had 13 players, 11 playing and two subs.

We've had a lot of setbacks but the last week has picked us up with those six points and two wins Neil Aspin

"I can't speak more highly of him. His attitude and his play this season has been tremendous."

Peat, 26, is in his second season with Harrogate after he joined from York City in 2007.

Despite the club's recent troubles Aspin is staying positive after winning the last two games.

"We've had a lot of setbacks but the last week has picked us up with those six points and two wins," he added.

"Now we go into a situation where we are low on numbers, so fingers crossed we don't lose more players."
