Wolves boss Nuno has told his board: We must buy.
If Wolves avoid defeat against Brighton today they will stretch their unbeaten top-flight run to 11 games for the first time since 1962.
But Nuno remains determined to strengthen his small squad in January with the backing of the club's Chinese owners Fosun.
He said: “It is about anticipating what you need.
"It is clear we need players."
