Now we’ve got proper cover in all

Smith’s Stadium, have still received no serious offers for striker Nahki Wells, who is available for transfer before the window closes in a week’s time.

Asked after the latest arrivals if his summer business was done, Wagner answered: “I think so.

“I will never say never, but I think we have a group together where we have every position occupied by at least two players and I think, from our point of view, we have done everythig we wanted to do.

“If fact, I am very happy with what I have together and it’s up to us, now, to get the best out of them.”

The signing of Swiss internatio­nal right-back Hadergjona­j on a season-long loan from Ingolstadt is a key piece of the jigsaw according to Wagner, who has the option to buy the 23-year-old (in a similar deal set-up to that which landed Elias Kachunga).

“I think everyone knows the position I thought we were short in was right-back and I’m very happy to have signed him because he is one of the most exciting young players in Germany.

“We have the chance now to really get a picture of him and to develop him, and I think he has everything you need in a rightback for our system.

“He is quick enough, his endurance is good and, like all of us, he has to adapt to the physical British Premier League game – and we will work with him on that.

“The good thing is, he has a lot of space to improve because he is still a young and exciting player and we need to get the best out of him.”

Wagner confirmed neither Sabiri nor Hadergjona­j would figure against Southampto­n and would build up their fitness through the internatio­nal break, hoping to push their chances for the trip to West Ham.
