Plymouth Argyle are being linked with a move for Bury striker Nicky Maynard.
The 32-year-old striker scored 22 goals for the Shakers as they finished runners-up to Lincoln City in League Two last season, but the club's financial issues means he and all of his team-mates could be on their way out of Gigg Lane.
Maynard is a proven striker at League Two level and has scored goals almost everywhere he has been.
Having graduated from Crewe Alexandra's famed Academy, he joined Bristol City in a £2.25m deal in July 2008 after scoring 35 goals in just 67 games for his local club.
The goals continued at Ashton Gate where he notched 46 in 131 appearances before joining West Ham United for £1.65m in January 2012.
Maynard spent just seven months as a Hammer, scoring four goals in 17 appearances before he headed back along the M4 corridor and joined Cardiff City in a £2.5 million deal.
However, Maynard suffered badly with injuries whilst in south wales and made only 26 appearances in three years, scoring three times. He was released in the summer of 2015 and went on to play for MK Dons and Aberdeen before joining Bury last summer.
In just a year at Bury, Maynard scored 22 times in 41 appearances for Bury and was a key part of their promotion from League Two.

The 32-year-old striker scored 22 goals for the Shakers as they won promotion as runners-up of League Two last season and with Argyle striker Freddie Ladapo linked with £500,000 moves to Sunderland or Portsmouth, he would certainly be an ideal replacement for the new-look Pilgrims.
Meanwhile, the future of Ruben Lameiras remains in question with the deadline over a decision on his future long since past.
Manager Ryan Lowe gave he and Graham Carey a deadline of Wednesday evening/Thursday morning to let him know whet they want to do, but while Carey has since joined CSKA Sofia, Lameiras is yet to announce where his future lies.
Lameiras is out of contract this summer, but Argyle are certainly keen to keep him at the club, although there is said to be plenty of interest in the 24-year-old Portuguese playmaker's services with French club Bordeaux, Bulgarian outfit CSKA Sofia and EFL clubs Swansea City and Charlton Athletic all linked with a move for the gifted attacker.
