Nigel Pearson makes Bristol City transfer assessment as he discusses challenges in the market

Bristol City manager Nigel Pearson concedes the club's summer transfer business could be over unless circumstances change although refused to rule out more new faces including loan deals.

On Saturday, Pearson claimed they can only bring in signings if players leave but highlighted the difficulties because the squad is already on the thin side. As it stands, City have brought in four arrivals and with five senior players leaving including Callum O'Dowda, Taylor Moore, Tyreeq Bakinson, Robbie Cundy and Kasey Palmer.

One of Pearson's biggest tasks this summer was to try and balance the books to make the club more sustainable to run with each of City's four signings arriving on free transfers. The manager and club have been working hard to try and fall in line with the EFL's Profit & Sustainability rules after posting losses of £38.4m for the financial year ending 2021.
