Inverness Caledonian Thistle manager John Robertson says he is in no rush to replace Jamie McCart, despite losing both starting centre backs this month.

The transfer window closes at midnight tomorrow in Scotland, so time is running out if Robertson is to bring in reinforcements.

It has been a turbulent month at Caley Thistle, with speculation rife over the futures of several players at the club and Coll Donaldson leaving as well as McCart.

Defender Lewis Toshney has been the only new arrival so far this month, and Robertson insists he would be happy with his squad if no more signings were made.

“We don’t want to lose good players, and we’ve lost two, but we’ve got a really good replacement in and we’ll look at the situation,” Robertson said.

“It’s not an immediate concern, because we’ve got Lewis Toshney, Brad McKay, Kevin McHattie and, if required, Nikolay Todorov who can all play centre half.

“Whilst we’re looking to see if there’s someone we could bring in, we’re not in a major hurry to do that."
