West Ham United boss Gianfranco Zola will have money to spend in the remaining weeks of this month's market.

The Sun says with the ex-Birmingham City supremos David Gold and David Sullivan at the helm, there will be no firesale of key players like Robert Green, Scott Parker and Matthew Upson.

In fact, Zola can even expect a modest transfer kitty of around £8million to bring in new blood during the January transfer window.

Zola has been in transfer limbo because of the club's massive debts and was desperate for it to be sorted one way or another.

He said: "These players, this team, they deserve to be helped.

"Stability for the club would be massive. Right now, we can't do anything - we just have to wait for something to happen.

"Once we know where the club is going, then we have a chance."
