The Canaries’ chief reiterated at Colney on Thursday afternoon he is happy with the make up of his squad, but knows the final week of the window can throw up opportunities.

City completed a loan deal for Palmeiras youngster Pedro Lima in recent days, and Wagner admits the Canaries must continue to monitor the market.

“As long the window is open, I can’t rule anything out,” he said, with the deadline closing at 11pm on September 1. “I said this often, and this is still the case, I’m very happy with the squad we have together but I will not rule anything out. We are not financially the big gun in the league. Everyone knows this and this is fine.

“I’ve no problem with it. I think we were very smart in the window so far, with our free transfers or the money which we spent.

“Obviously we have to have an eye on our financial situation as well. But I feel fully supported by the board for what we’ve done so far. This will be the case until the end of the window.

“As long as it’s open obviously we have to have our eye on the window. That is our job, and we have to prepare for everything which can pop up, loan, permanent, free transfer. Will something happen? Who knows. What is important is if we do something that we do the right thing.”

City have made a number of astute free transfer additions in the likes of Ashley Barnes, Shane Duffy and Jack Stacey who have already made their mark in the Championship.

Borja Sainz was another free transfer addition from Turkey, but the Spanish wide player is yet to feature due to a pre-season ankle injury.

Wagner made it clear at Colney 20-year-old midfielder Lima is very much a development addition in the short term.

“To be totally honest this is an academy signing, I will have a look at him when the time is right. And when the time is right the academy guys will let me know,” said the City chief. “Like in the past, this is why I don’t like to speak too much about at this stage. It’s exciting to get another Brazilian guy into the building.

“But I think now it’s all about how he adapts with the academy. And then when the time’s right they will pass them over to me that so I can have a look on him in for training, and then we will see what we could get out.”

Lima could make his City bow in Friday’s Carrow Road development game against Chelsea’s Under-21s.

“I am not the person who will make that decision,” said Wagner. “I only make the decision if some of my players are going to be involved.”
