From The M.E.N.
'There are funds available every year. There are funds available this year but when you look at our team it is about tweaking rather than massive rebuild.
'We will start next season with some new faces. Ultimately all I can assure you is the squad that starts next season will be the squad that will get us the Premier League again and advance us further in Europe.
'We have a very interesting market at the moment. It was very quiet last season and there is nothing to suggest it will be fundamentally different this year. You have Arsenal saying they only have £10m to spend and a lot of the Italian clubs aren't in financially good health.’
