Steve Cooper says Swansea City aren't looking solely at the loan market this month as they bid to bolster their squad in the January transfer window.
The Swansea head coach is understood to be eager to recruit a striker and a No.10 this month.
After the 2-0 FA Cup third round victory over Stevenage, the Swansea boss also revealed his side are also on the lookout for a new goalkeeper following the news that second choice shot stopper Steven Benda requires an ankle operation to repair an injury he sustained in training.
And Cooper has stated the Swans could potentially bring new faces to the Liberty Stadium on a loan or permanent basis this month.
When asked if they were operating solely in the loan window in January, Cooper responded: "No, not really. We're open to either. There's a lot of things you've got to get over the line to get a signing done, but we'll wait and see."
Swansea have seen Morgan Gibbs-White and Kasey Palmer return to Wolves and Bristol City respectively this month while it remains possible that Viktor Gyokeres - who netted his first goal for the club at Stevenage - could head back to Brighton.
And after the cup contest at The Lamex Stadium, Cooper gave the strongest hint yet that his side will be active in the January transfer window when it comes to incomings.
"Obviously, until something gets over the line, we won't get too ahead of ourselves or excited," he said.
"We're working really hard, we know what we want to do and if the things that we're trying to do come off, I think it'll be good.
"It is important to add, they've got to be the right players and characters. I'm not just going to bring bodies in for the sake of bringing them in because our culture is too strong.
"But at the same time, in an ideal world, we will be able to add one or two. We're working on a few things, and if it comes off, then great, but if not, as you know, we'll work with the players and continue to give our best."
The winter window closes at 11pm on February 1.
