Rafa will have board backing for January spending spree

We all know that Rafa is already busy trying to find new signings for the upcoming transfer window. He will certainly be buying a central defender, a right winger and reports have suggested he is also after a new striker. The good news is that Rafa has confirmed he will receive the required funding for the new acquisitions:

Benitez said today: "The board has told me they know we must try to improve the squad and sign more players and it's good we are all thinking the same way.

"We are going to move forward because we want to win trophies. I'm happy with the scouting department and we are thinking about the right players to sign, not how much they will cost.
"We have a lot of confidence we will bring in the players good enough for us."

Rafa has hinted that we may be raiding the continent's top clubs for talent suggesting that he will have no hesitation buying players who are cup tied for Europe.

He explained: "We need players to improve the team. If a centre-half can't play in the Champions League, okay, we have Sami and Carra."

I think there will be some major signings on the way. Rafa may also raise some more money by showing the door to some of our underperforming players.

Please post your opinions on who Rafa should sign.
