Michael Duff admits he's not yet sure whether the added investment in the club will result in extra funds to spend in January.

News emerged this week that the club's majority owners had invested a further £3.5m into the coffers, with the Swans' Supporters' Trust confirming new shares had been issued in return for investment by Swansea Football LLC, which includes chairman Andy Coleman, Jason Levien, Steve Kaplan and Jake Silverstein.

The timing of the announcement will inevitably spark suggestions that the club could well have more to play with when the January window opens. However, Duff says he's not yet had any indication on what it will mean for his potential transfer kitty.

"I don't know the ins and outs of where that capital goes," he said ahead of Saturday's clash with Ipswich Town. "I think that's a fairly standard thing in football. My job is to try to make the players better. I don't think there's been a number put on it, we'll get it to spend.

"We might not see it. My job from the football side of it to try to come out of a window stronger than when we went in.

"Those are conversations we'll be having later down the line. That's why you have a sporting director, CEO, finances officers all those sorts of things. It might be going to pay for toilets that need doing, I don't know.

"I just get told what we'll do further down the line, closer to January. But it's good there's money being invested."

Swansea's summer was their most active transfer window since relegation to the Championship, with loan signings a big part of their recruitment drive. However, while the club can bring more loanees on board, the rules around how many can be used in a matchday squad means the prospect isn't an attractive one for the Swans boss.

"We can't get any more in," he told WalesOnline. "So we'll need to find out if any are going to get called back. Or if we're going to send any back. These are conversations we'll need to be having because I don't think there's any point in having six, seven, eight, nine loans if you can only have five in a matchday squad, because what's the point?

"We've got our own players too and they're here to support what we've already got. Hopefully we get a good balance. We've got experienced players and most of the loan players are all young players from big Premier League clubs."

Asked whether he had even an initial idea on what might be possible, he added: "Not really, no. The recruitment department's all in the building now. Then it's about finding out what's available. But you don't want to sign players for the sake of it. We need to see what happens.

"We might get two phone calls from Chelsea and Arsenal next week to say they want them [Bashir Humphreys and Charlie Patino] back to send them to Serie A.

"It's about opening those lines of communication so that sort of thing doesn't come as a surprise if it happens. It's about ending the window stronger than what we started."
