Hide AdBut Warne, who is tracking Bolton Wanderers forward man Jamie Proctor and Forest Green Rovers' Christian Doidge, admits he needs more options.
"I need another striker at least, I might even bring two in," he told the Advertiser.
"There is one I'm trying to get through the door in the next few days and there's the potential to bring another one in, whether that is a bit later on, I don't know."

Hide AdOn Proctor, he added: "I do like him, he's one of my targets because he can play as a target man, he can bring people into the game and he's pretty athletic and I think if he was to play in our team, with the strength in depth we have in the middle of the park, he would get chances to score.
"He would be a decent addition but there are a few options out there for us at the moment."
Jamie Proctor: a possible option for Paul Warne.
Striker Danny Ward is expected to leave for Cardiff City very soon while there are still question marks about Dexter Blackstock's future at the club.
