DAVID Moyes wants to add three players to his squad next month - and will target a centre forward and a right-sided midfielder.

The Everton manager is busy scouring the loan market for players who can provide the goals and creative spark his side need to begin their climb up the table.

Moyes refused to rule out loan moves for forwards like Manchester City’s Roque Santa Cruz or Emmanuel Adebayor, and would be interested if Arsenal’s Niklas Bendtner became available, although he stressed the latter would be unlikely.

He said: “I think if any of them became available towards us we’d look. But in this window there will not be enough to pick and choose. You might have to take what you can if you need something.

“I would like to add two or three but they will be loan players. We have a few people in mind so we will see how it goes.

“You have to be careful not to think that suddenly everyone arrives here on January 1 because it won’t happen, it will be through the month.

“You can’t just say, ‘that is the one I want’ because clubs don’t let centre forwards out on loan unless they are surplus to requirements. We will see what there is and what we can do.

“Positional wise we could do with a centre forward and we have been short of a wide right for most of the season so I could do with those two positions. Seamus Coleman has done really well but we would like to give him a breather here or there.”

Moyes also said he is still waiting for an answer from Landon Donovan concerning the American’s potential loan move next month, and admitted he may have to look elsewhere if he does not get a response by next week.

He said: “I have spoke with him and he was going on holiday. I would hope to hear something next week if there was any chance. If not we will try and move towards something else.”

While the Blues boss admitted he is ready to listen to offers for newly-returned striker James Vaughan.

He said: “I’m not sure I would include him right now anyway but he has come back with an ankle problem so we will have to see how it is. I have a couple of clubs interest in Vaughany.

“It’s possible he could leave if we get the right offer.”

Meanwhile, he stressed the club have received no bids for Leighton Baines, and he would not sell the defender even if they did.

“We wouldn’t be keen to let our best players go, that has always been our policy.”
