Hodgson still keen to add to squad despite limited budget

LIVERPOOL manager Roy Hodgson is keen to further add to his squad before the start of the new season but admits he has to be realistic in his aims.

The Englishman accepts he cannot match the spending power of rivals like Manchester City or Spurs but that will not stop his recruitment drive.

Having already acquired Joe Cole and Milan Jovanovic on free transfers, and brought in 18-year-old centre-back Danny Wilson for an initial £2 million (€2.3m), Hodgson has to find a left-back and support for striker Fernando Torres.
