Exclusive: What Don Goodman says about Charlton Athletic’s transfer plans under Nathan Jones.

Charlton Athletic have a tough job on their hands trying to avoid relegation from the Championship next season after winning promotion through the League One play-offs.

The hill that the Addicks have to climb isn’t as steep as those going from the second to the first tier of English football, but, nevertheless, it is an incredibly competitive division that they are heading into.

The Valley’s manager, Nathan Jones, has signed to a new five-year contract to remain with the London club until the summer of 2030 after Cardiff City, his boyhood team, showed a lot of interest. Although the team has certain shortcomings in comparison to the opponents they will play next season, the former manager of Luton Town and Stoke City has a wealth of Championship managerial expertise to impart to his players.

The departure of Thierry Small, who signed a free agent contract with Preston North End, only compounded these problems that require attention longer. According to The Star, Charlton wants to bolster their defense, and out-of-contract Sheffield Wednesday center-half Akin Famewo is being considered.
