Centre-back Rode and midfielder Petersons are both currently at Skonto Riga and they are thought to be seeking a move to the UK. Agent Gino Culbertson, who is mandated by the players and Skonto Riga, is talking to interested clubs about Rode and Petersons. Skonto Riga are thought to be willing to let the pair move on and both players could be available to come on trial to interested clubs. Petersons has been linked with a move to England in the past with Burnley credited with an interest in the player previously.
