Mark Hudson wants to add more "goal threat" to his squad this month after Cardiff City were given the go ahead to start chasing their transfer targets this month.
The club had been subjected to a transfer embargo in this window, owing to the ongoing dispute over paying the first instalment of the Emiliano Sala transfer fee to Nantes.
Cardiff this week paid that money, believed to be around £7m, and the transfer embargoes have been lifted. The EFL's transfer embargo is in two parts, meaning Cardiff are able to trade in this window, however they are only able to bring in loan players and free transfers.
