West Brom manager Slaven Bilic has said that the club has enough numbers in the squad and they will only bring in further players if it improves the first team quality. He also said that he did not agree with the notion that the baggies needed more depth and said that if another player comes in, it may mean a player will have to leave the club as well.
Slaven Bilic said “We don’t need numbers – we have numbers, If one comes then probably one will have to go, ideally. We don’t need numbers. Unless we can get someone that I or we think gives us something we don’t have, then what’s the point? I would rather wait, I would rather wait to get the proper one – the one that we want, than get one just for the sake of doing it. With Covid the fact is, okay we hoped, we are still trying to make the best out of the transfer window. We were in a difficult situation – not just because of Covid – but we were in a difficult situation where we had to spend our funds to keep the players we had last season on loan. Then phase two is to improve your squad which you have to do because you are going to play one level up.”
