Mick McCarthy says he is not actively looking to add to his squad in the January transfer window but he will ‘ask the question’ if the right player became available. 

With the window opening tomorrow, the Town boss told the Club website: “We have been unfortunate with injuries. We have lost Didz [David McGoldrick] for a while which is obviously very disappointing. He has done some serious damage to his hamstring and we are also still missing Bish [Teddy Bishop] with a hamstring as well. We have to be patient with him. 

“Larsen Toure is out as well so if the right player becomes available in January, then I would certainly ask the question. 

“I’m not actively looking though. I have a really good squad and I keep telling everyone, I would rather concentrate on that than look for replacements. Where am I going to find those replacements anyway?

“If a player came up though that I thought could bring something different to the squad, then I’ve got to look at it.”
