According to Sky Sports, Crewe midfielder Ben Rix is close to joining Hereford on loan.
The below comes from Sky Sports:
Meanwhile, Gradi has confirmed that he will allow Ben Rix to move to Hereford on loan once he has Tony Grant and Lee Bell back from injury.
"Ben Rix wants to go on loan to Hereford, but he can't until Grant and Bell are available again," he added.
Rix is a 22 year old midfielder who signed with Crewe as a trainee in 2001. He has spent time on loan at Scarborough and more recently at Bournemouth where he made 11 appearances over his three months stay.
His latest appearance for Crewe was on Tuesday evening when he came on as a sub late in the game in which Crewe defeated Wigan 2-0.
At the Fans Forum last Monday Graham Turner spoke about a player who was going to join Hereford United but was kept by his club for injury cover. It seems possible that Ben Rix was that player.
