Paul Lambert is keen to continue strengthening his Norwich City squad before the new Premier League season, but will only sign players for the right price.

The Canaries have already signed James Vaughan and Steve Morison, while a number of other players have been linked to Carrow Road as Lambert prepares for the new season after back-to-back promotions.

Lambert told talkSPORT: “It is tough to get lads. Where does the money stop or where do you actually start? I think the prices are really inflated. The money at the minute for transfer fees is out of control at times.

“We can only do what we can do which I am totally at ease with.

“We will try to get lads to the football club that I think will go and compete with everybody else.”

Norwich have been linked with moves for Leeds midfielder Bradley Johnson, Brighton’s Elliott Bennett and Ritchie De Laet of Manchester United, and Lambert has confirmed that the club are close to signing two players.

“We are close on a couple at the minute and we will try and get them in by the time we get the group back,” he added.

“By the time they come back altogether then they can get to know each other and hopefully integrate with the ones that are already there.

“We need half a dozen or so to come in and give us a hand.”
