Stoke City manager Mark Hughes has revealed that he is hoping to bring in players in the January transfer window to bolster his attack for the second half of the season.
Hughes said that the targets have been identified and the club would be looking to bring them in as early in January as possible, rather than wait until the end of the window.
"We're looking to get our deals done early because that will help us in the long run," the club's Twitter account quotes Hughes as saying. "We're looking at all deals: loans and permanent.
"We are in the market for a bit more quality in the final third, and to add a player or two to the front men we have here now."
Stoke are currently 12th in the Premier League.
