With the Robins firmly competing for a play-off spot, Yates is keen to add a couple of new faces to add a timely mid-season boost to his ranks.
Centre-back Ashley Eastham and striker Phil Walsh were brought in last Thursday, and Yates is keen to also bring in a wide man.
"I have put a call in about a player and I`m just waiting to hear an answer," he told the club`s official website.
"Whether it be for this weekend I am not sure but it is a player with a bit of pace and who can play out wide, which is what I have wanted."
