Derby County head coach Steve McClaren has admitted that the club are hoping to sign another player on loan following the 2-0 defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion.
Defeat to the Seagulls saw Derby lose top spot in the Championship, and McClaren is keen to add attacking reinforcements to boost his side's promotion bid.
Darren Bent and Chris Martin are both currently out of action due to injury, but McClaren insists that he is willing to keep trusting Johnny Russell to lead the line.
"We are looking, but there is no problem to go again with Johnny - he did a great job," the Derby boss told reporters.
"He showed energy and a willingness to run, he is a centre-forward and he will score goals."
Bent could be unavailable for up to a month with a hamstring injury, while Martin has missed the last five matches with a similar problem.
