Roberto De Zerbi expects to add to his squad in January.

But he does not see it being a problem.

The Seagulls are seventh going into the World Cup break.

They have two more Premier League fixtures before the next window opens.

Asked about bringing in mid-season reinforcements, De Zerbi said: “We haven’t spoken yet with the club but I think we need something to complete the squad.

“We have some positions of the pitch where we have to do something for sure. But I think that will not be a problem.”

De Zerbi recently said he did not need to sign a striker in January.

His squad now go into a two-week break followed by a return to training, some of it warm-weather.
