Walker joined the Grecians in the recent 3-2 friendly defeat to Premiership newcomers West Bromwich Albion.

He impressed both the manager and board during the match, and Corny reckons he is sure to sign the contract that has been offered to him.

"Justin is just the sort of player I want to sign, " admitted the City manager in the Express & Echo, " he is a quality player and when quality players become available you want to sign them.

"Hopefully we will be able to thrash out a deal in the next few days."

The player is available on a free, after being released by cash strapped Lincoln City, due to their need to cut costs.

He previously helped Scunthorpe United to promotion in 1999, and was on the books of Nottingham Forest.
