Huddersfield Town owner Kevin Nagle has revealed that the club have already “made some moves” to strengthen the squad next month.

The Terriers are looking to add to their squad during the January transfer window as they seek to aid their bid to secure promotion back to the Championship at the end of the season. The window to sign players is not open for a couple of weeks but Nagle indicated that the club are already making progress with their recruitment.

Providing a transfer update in his latest diary on X, the Terriers owner said: “We’ve already been working on it, and Mark (Cartwright) and Jake (Edwards) have been active, really mostly Jake, and we’ve actually made some moves.

“We can’t announce those as yet, they need to be finalised, but barring a shock, I believe the fanbase will be very happy. We listened to them, [alongside] what the gaffer needs, and then also talking to Mark along with the recruitment team, and hopefully we’ll see some things that will make everybody happy.”

Nagle has stated that Town will be looking to strengthen up front during the upcoming window. And the Terriers owner is optimistic that the club will be able to complete the business that they want to do by the end of next month.

“You can never have enough strikers, that’s the first thing,” Nagle told BBC Radio Leeds. “They get injured, they hit a dry spell. Sometimes they just have that year where they’re not as successful, so let’s just say this much. We might have a striker, maybe even more.

“I feel pretty good about it right now (that they’ll get a striker in), I think that we’ve worked really hard. There are some things we might get as well, we need insurance in certain areas. You can look at the club, where our strength is, where we’re a little bit thin.

“The bottom line is, we want to be promoted. We know that we had to make a couple of changes, we’re in fourth place right now, and I think that by the end of January, you’ll be very happy with what we’ve got.”

The Terriers signed eight players in the summer window. While Michael Duff knows that there won’t be as much transfer activity in the upcoming window, the head coach has been told that there is “money available” to strengthen the squad further.

However, Duff has stressed that the club won’t be signing players if they don’t improve the side. “He (Nagle) knows what we’ve wanted for quite a while now,” Duff told BBC Radio Leeds.

“We identify areas of the pitch, and then it’s up to Mark and the chairman. I don’t get involved in salaries or transfer fees, that’s not my gig. We come up with a list, and then it’s like ‘well what’s the best value for money?’.

“It’s not an open chequebook, it’s not carte blanche – you can go and sign who you want – but I think that if the right thing comes along, there will be money available. It’s not like we have to generate our own money.

“These things, they change weekly, but we won’t be signing eight or nine players, I know that. You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to see where we want to strengthen, and if we can’t, we won’t bring in numbers just for the sake of it.”
