Steven Hammell insists Motherwell are well ahead with their January shopping list as he looks to get at least two key signings in the door.
The Steelemen face a big window according to the boss who has targets in his sights despite the mid-season signing frenzy not officially beginning for another two months. Hammell has been hampered by injuries to big players including Louis Moult, Rolando Aarons and Joe Efford who has been ruled out until the new year after undergoing surgery on a torn thigh muscle.
It means Well have had to turn to their youth team to fill their quota of substitutes in recent weeks. But Hammell says a budget has been set aside to recruit in January - and transfer targets have already been identified. He said: “That’s something we have already spoken about. We are not getting too far ahead but you need to plan on what we can do short term.
