Chris Hughton is adamant that he is no hurry to add players to his Norwich City squad.

Norwich City manager Chris Hughton has admitted that he does not expect there to be too much transfer activity at Carrow Road during this month's transfer window.

The Canaries have been linked with moves for a handful of players, including Swansea City's Danny Graham and Celtic's Gary Hooper.

However, Hughton has insisted that he will only look to conclude a deal if it proves to be financially viable.

"I don't expect to be busy. We are, as most clubs will try to do, looking to strengthen the squad. If there are players there we will endeavour to do that but I don't envisage massive changes," he said.

"It is difficult because it is not a good time to bring in players. Last January we brought in a couple, but we will continue to try working. January is notoriously not a great time to bring in players.

"You have to make sure they are the right players at the right price and value which is why at this moment not a lot of business has been done."

Hughton's team are currently 12th in the Premier League table.
