Boss Mick McCarthy says he could look at strengthening his defensive options during the January transfer window.
Over the last week young right-backs Elliott Hewitt and Frederic Veseli have respectively joined Gillingham and Bury on loan to gain experience, leaving the Blues short on defensive cover.
McCarthy told the club site: "I’m absolutely delighted with the squad of players we have got here and we have Sylvan Ebanks-Blake and Hunty in there now as well.
"With the window open, it’s possible that we could have one or two changes. Players going out on loan might open things up to bring someone in.
"We have only used the five lads at the back, Cressy, Tyrone, Tommy Smith, Christophe Berra and Chambo and they have done remarkably well. That is perhaps an area where we could look to strengthen squad-wise.”
Former loanee Richard Stearman may be amongst those who come into McCarthy’s thoughts as he looks to add to his options, Town having been priced out of a move in the summer.
The 26-year-old, who is out of contract in June, has been offered new terms by Wolves and has been a regular in their side this season, but Town could renew their interest should no agreement be reached with his current club.
