Queens Park Rangers manager Harry Redknapp has threatened to leave the club if they do not back him in the transfer market.
The R's are currently preparing for life in the Championship after failing to avoid relegation from the Premier League during the last campaign.
Redknapp insists that the arrival of any new players at Loftus Road should be down to him and now owner Tony Fernandes.
"We've got to make the decisions, and if we make the right ones we will have a chance," he told Sky Sports News. "Otherwise, if other people want to make decisions we've got no chance.
"If I don't get that then I wouldn't stick around. I'll speak to Tony Fernandes, they've got to back me with the people I want. I'm not asking him to spend money, I'm looking at a couple of free transfers."
Redknapp recently confirmed that he is interested in signing former Brighton & Hove Albion defender Wayne Bridge.
