Chris Hughton: “I think the transfer market will probably move on a bit after the World Cup finishes, which is probably normal in a World Cup year.
“Where we are at the moment is we’re making enquiries and beginning to make decisions on players but we are making progress.
"What happens over this period of time is that there are people that we have looked at and people that have become available that we believe are of the required quality to add to our squad.
“We’re getting plenty of phone calls at the moments from agents and from clubs and among those there are plenty of names that are now available that perhaps weren’t on our radar before.
“We’ve not particularly targeted foreign players, but we’re open to anything that may improve our squad.
“That includes the Championship, free transfers and loan players too. We certainly won’t rule out looking at the Championship if there are players we feel are ready to step into the Premier League.”
