West Brom manager Tony Mowbray has admitted he will have to adopt a "sell-to-buy policy" if he wants to bring in new players during the January transfer window.
Mowbray would like to freshen up his current squad before making a push for promotion back to the Premiership in the second half of the campaign, but concedes he may have to try and off-load some of the fringe members currently at his disposal.
He said: "I talk to the chairman (Jeremy Peace) just about every day about potential ins and outs. As the chairman has said, I will need to create some funds to make that happen.
"The clear message is that the players we see taking us into the future won't be going anywhere because I understand you need your best players to win football matches.
"But, sometimes, the players you wouldn't mind moving on are the ones that people don't covet. There might have to be a sale down the line to create some movement for players in.
"A new drive, a new face around the place isn't a bad thing. It can stir things up and get players trying to show the new signing they are better than him."
