Sunderland boss Gus Poyet has ruled out shopping in the free agents market.
Poyet would rather wait until more options are available in the New Year.
He said: "There were a few calls about a few players. To be honest, I am not really looking. I would prefer to go until January.
"I would like to concentrate on what we have.
"It would have to be something tremendous or losing three players through injury.
"At the moment, no, we are not looking for any player."
