Mowbray Willing To Pay For A Player

Last updated : 17 July 2015 By Covsupport News Service

Coventry City manager Tony Mowbray has said that he is willing to pay for players.

The City boss has already paid money for Romain Vincelot and is now willing to use a percentage of his budget believed to be worth around £2.5m to pay for a player..

Mowbray told the Coventry Telegraph's Andy Turner: "It’s all money, it all comes out of the same pot. There’s not a transfer budget and salary budget, there’s just a budget.

“You have to weigh up what you are going to spend and give them as a salary and add it all up and ask if you can do it. In Romain’s instance, yes we could. But once it’s gone it won’t be spent again.

“We’re trying to stretch the budget as much as we can to get some forward-thinking, fast goal scorers into this building that can finish off the experience we have recruited at the back.

"That should help us keep some clean sheets and our quality in midfield will hopefully help us keep the ball and move it around to create chances to score goals.”
