Blackpool will be aiming to end the 2021/22 campaign on a positive note this weekend when they head to the Weston Homes Stadium to face Peterborough United in the Championship.

After suffering an unexpected 2-0 defeat at the hands of Derby County last Saturday, it will be interesting to see how the Seasiders respond to his particular setback.

Having consolidated their place in the second-tier following their promotion to this division last year, Blackpool will unquestionably be determined to move forward as a club next season.

Head coach Neil Critchley may have already started to look at players who he thinks will add a new dimension to his team.

Critchley will also need to make decisions regarding the futures of some of the existing members of his squad.

Ahead of the club's showdown with Peterborough, we have decided to take a look at seven Blackpool transfer dealings we could see happen as soon as next month.

Check them out now!

Blackpool have the option to purchase Charlie Kirk from Charlton Athletic this summer for a fee believed to be in the region of £500,000.

Since joining the Seasiders on a temporary basis, Kirk has produced some encouraging performances in the second-tier for the club.

Having provided a respectable total of  three assists in nine league games, it wouldn't be at all surprising if the 24-year-old makes a permanent move to Bloomfield Road in the not too distant future.

Richard Keogh's contract at Blackpool is set to expire in June and Critchley recently admitted that he wants the defender to stay at the club beyond the summer.

Given that the Seasiders have the option to automatically extend his stay for another 12 months, it wouldn't be at all surprising if they trigger this clause in his current contract.

During the 2021/22 campaign, Keogh has managed to make 30 appearances for Blackpool in all competitions.

Keshi Anderson's deal at Bloomfield Road is also set to reach a crescendo this summer but Blackpool do reportedly have the option to extend his stay for another year.

Yet to make a decision about whether to trigger this clause, it could be argued that the Seasiders ought to keep Anderson due to the fact that he has managed to produce some encouraging performances this season.

In the 32 appearances that he has made in the Championship this season, Anderson has managed to score four goals whilst he has also chipped in five assists.

Josh Bowler is another player who has an option in his current deal that Blackpool have yet to exercise.

A stand-out performer for the Seasiders this season, the winger has provided 10 direct goal contributions in the Championship.

Bowler's displays have not gone unnoticed by other Championship clubs and thus his current side will need to act quickly when it comes to making a decision regarding his future.

By extending Bowler's stay, Blackpool will force any potential suitors to submit a bid for him in the upcoming window.

Bez Lubala could be one of a number of players who will be allowed to leave Blackpool this summer.

The winger was loaned out to Northampton Town earlier this year and has ultimately failed to make a positive impact for the League Two side during this particular spell.

When you consider that Lubala has only managed to provide one direct goal contribution in 14 appearances for the Cobblers, the likelihood of him being able to compete at Championship level next season is slim.

Therefore, given that Lubala's deal is set to run until 2023, Blackpool ought to be looking at selling him at the earliest opportunity.

Doug Tharme left Blackpool on a temporary basis last year as he joined National League North side Southport on a season-long loan deal.

During his time with the non-league outfit, Tharme has made 30 league appearances for the club who are set to end the season in mid-table.

Unless Critchley believes that the 22-year-old is ready to make the step up in level to the Championship, he may decide to sanction another loan move for him when the window opens again.

Cameron Antwi spent a sizeable chunk of the first half of the 2021/22 campaign on loan at AFC Telford United.

After making eight appearances for the non-league outfit, Antwi would have been hoping to make inroads on Blackpool's match-day squad upon his return to Bloomfield Road.

However, the 20-year-old has failed to make a senior appearances for the Seasiders since the turn of the year and is out of contract this summer.

Although Blackpool do have the option to extend his stay for another year, it wouldn't be a shock if Antwi is allowed to become a free-agent.
