Blackburn Rovers boss Sam Allardyce says he may make one new signing before the winter market shuts.

Allardyce said: "From my point of view, maybe one more player we need if one can be found. We have a limited budget though and the player I find has to be at a similar level to the one I have just found.

"That is a difficult task. If I can find him then fine, if not I am happy with what I have got. I will only bring in a quality player that can challenge the quality we already have in the squad.

"I am looking for a player to turn up, if there is one more, and blow my socks off and say he is a good enough player to challenge what we have already got. I don't see any point in taking any players other than for that reason but that is very difficult of course.

"If I don't get one, if we can keep this squad fit and producing what they have I will be happy. Apart from David Bentley and Brad Friedel this squad is the same as the one that finished seventh, plus additions. I am just trying to get that out of them again."
