Allen closes on striker target

Skysports.com understands Charlton have accepted a bid from Notts County for striker Paul Benson. Magpies boss Martin Allen is keen to bring in a new forward and he has targeted a move for Benson. Benson scored 10 goals for the Addicks last season in his debut campaign after arriving from Dagenham & Redbridge. Charlton are reluctant to lose Benson, but they have accepted County's offer for the 31-year-old. Benson will now hold talks about a possible move to Meadow Lane as Allen sees him as a key addition to his plans for next season.
