Former chief executive Chris Irwin is also working with his own consortium to try and salvage the troubled club, with the RFL announcing a decision on which bid has been successful on 17 December.
A mass player exodus, late wage payments and frequent appearances in the High Court over unpaid debts overshadowed a campaign in which they finished bottom of Super League.
Salford also lost their top-flight status in the end-of-year grading before last week’s appearance saw the club wound up with their former owners unable to reach a deal to settle significant outstanding debts.
Despite the short turnaround to the start of the upcoming 2026 Championship campaign in mid-January, Caton-Brown said his bid had already made an effort to recruit personnel to be able to take to the field.
“We’ve already got a few agreements with some players and should this bid be successful we can turn them into concrete agreements with the players and I’m really confident we can get a full squad out on our first game,” Caton-Brown added.
“We’ve got a coach lined up and he’s really really enthusiastic and ready to go. He’s been working a lot trying to talk to players as well.
“Everything’s all up in the air but once we’re concrete in our bid then we can start releasing names and everything.”
