Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has claimed that he will not be forced into the transfer market if the right player is not available.
The Reds have yet to make a move this window, and the Northern Irishman says that he will not open the chequebook just for the sake of adding to his squad this month.
The Reds boss is quoted as saying in the Liverpool Echo: "They have to be available first and foremost. If the right player is available not just for now but for the future we will look to do that.
"If not we may have to go with what we've got for the rest of this season and reassess in the summer.
"Where we're at this January as opposed to last January is that the team has evolved and grown and developed. It's a different team to what it was last January. Now there is greater demand on the types of players that we want to bring in."
Rodgers brought Daniel Sturridge and Philippe Coutinho to the club in last year's window.
