Wolves chairman Steve Morgan has hinted that he has other targets after announcing that the club has signed Jamie O’Hara on a permanent deal, the former Spurs plays has signed a five-year contract at Molineux worth £5 million.
Having joined Wolves on-loan in January, O’Hara was instrumental in helping the club achieve Premier League survival last season.
Manager Mick McCarthy has signalled out Reading centre-back Matt Mills, Birmingham central defender Roger Johnson and Liverpool left-back Paul Konchesky as potential targets.
Morgan says Wolves are likely to dip into the transfer market again during this window.
He said: "Watch this space. I'm not giving anything away but there will probably be one or two more additions.
"I can't comment on specific players. We only ever do that when players arrive."
Speaking on Jamie O’Hara’s signing, he added; "I actually said to Jamie when he first arrived at the club on loan from Spurs that we wanted to make the deal permanent.
"I was a big fan of Jamie when he played for Portsmouth the year before. I thought he was their most outstanding player.
"He almost kept them up and he was just a player who had got 'Wolves' written all over him.
"He is our type of player. We've got one of the youngest squads in the Premier League and Jamie is in the same age group.
"He has got fire in his belly and he just totally fits in to what we are all about at Wolves and where we are taking the club."

Henry sorry for hard tackle
Wolves hardman Karl Henry has apologised following his dismissal against Wigan on Saturday. Herny was red carded for a dreadful late tackle on Wigan's Jordi Gomez at the DW Stadium last weekend. Referee Lee Mason issued Henry with a straight red card, Henry has said he regrets the challenge and would like to apologise to everyone connected with club."Having watched it again I can see that it looks horrific and realise that it was a deserved red card," he told the club's official website.
"I've already apologised to the manager, TC and the boys, but I'd also like to apologise to the supporters, especially the ones that travelled up to Wigan.
"If we had had 11 men on the pitch, there is no doubt in my mind that we would have won that game.
"I'm desperately disappointed - if I could go back and rerun it all again I wouldn't make the challenge and I would have stayed on my feet.
"It's something that I'll learn from. But things happen so quickly. I'd made the decision to go and win the ball and it turned out to be the wrong one.
"We started really well and I thought we were well in contention - especially in the first half. And so again, I'd like to stress how sorry I am because I know that I have let people down.
"And, on top of everything else, I'm going to miss three important games. For me it's a bad situation, but I've got every confidence that the boys can get a result against West Ham and kick on from there."
