Torquay United manager Jimmy Ball says he hopes he can still add to his squad.
The Gulls have reinforced over the past week, with Plymouth Argyle youngsters Tegan Finn and Caleb Roberts joining the club, as well as defender Oludare Olufunwa and winger Angelo Cappello.
However Ball says he will not rush to strengthen, having watched striker Jordan Young, defender Sam Dreyer and winger Dylan Morgan depart in recent weeks.
"There's a couple of positions within the squad I'd like to strengthen," Ball told BBC Radio Devon.
"But I'm in a position now where I can take my time and make sure of the decisions that I'm making.
"Not that we didn't have all the lads we've brought in on a list, on a radar, but there's no rush now.
"But I'd like to bring one more in for sure. but there's no rush about it, it's going to be a calculated one."
Ball took over the club in March after Paul Wotton's sacking and guided them to a third-placed finish in National League South last season.
The club went on to lose at Hornchurch in a dramatic play-off final in May.
They struggled at the start of this season, but have won back-to-back games to move up to eighth place in National League South
Ball says he is confident in the recruitment work he and his team are doing as he looks to try and get the Gulls promoted after four seasons in the sixth tier.
