Intro:

Sunderland coach Gus Poyet hinted that new signings are likely at the club before the close of the transfer window as he looked ahead to Saturday's trip to Queen's Park Rangers in the English Premier League

Script:

SOUNDBITE (English) (on possible new signings as the close of the transfer window approaches)

"Well, we are expecting to have players coming in... going out, you never know, you're just waiting... It's a difficult one as well, it's a difficult press conference, because there are too many names and it's impossible to really comment on anyone because I even read that we have already done deals - signed - and I can tell you that they are not (done), so it's impossible to comment."

SOUNDBITE (English) (on his wish not to sell any of his players and his desire to keep the current squad together)

"Oh, we are ready for everything. We are ready for any kind of approach, offer. We would like not to sell any player. The idea is to keep the group busy here. Apart from a couple, they have been very close to leaving the football club. The rest, we hope not to sell now. We cannot control the market, we cannot control the offers. I hope nothing is coming, if you are listening, any manager, don't make any offers so that we can have a good weekend with a good result tomorrow."
