Wolverhampton Wanderers manager Kenny Jackett has admitted that he would prefer to sign players to permanent deals this summer as the club prepares for a return to the Championship.
Despite not going as far as to rule out any loan deals for the remainder of the window, Jackett is hopeful that he can persuade targets to commit their future to the club on a long-term basis.
"We'd prefer our own players and a loan player we have a chance of signing in the end," the Wolves boss told the Express % Star.
"If it is a loan, and loans have been successful for us at times, we'd hope it's one that turns out to be a permanent deal, if it goes well for both sides."
Wolves continued their preparations for the new campaign with a 2-2 draw against Peterborough United on Tuesday night.
