Sven Goran Eriksson has insisted he will only bring 'the right players' to Manchester City.
Thaksin Shinawatra has given the Swede a transfer war chest believed to be around £50million to help turn around the club's fortunes.
Eriksson has already signed Rolando Bianchi from Reggina for £8.8million and Gelson Fernandes from Sion for £3.8million.
Several more new arrivals are expected before the start of the season but Eriksson admits it is not always easy to secure top players.
He is determined not to spend money rashly but is also looking to build for the future and has urged fans to be patient.
"It is not like going to the supermarket and picking a player off the shelf," he told the Manchester Evening News.
"We are making enquiries all the time about players but it is sometimes a slow process with agents, managers and chief executives all involved in the process.
"It depends what kind of players we can get as to how many we bring in, but we will not spend for the sake of it.
"They have to be the right players for Manchester City."
Bianchi, who scored 18 goals in Serie A last season, could make his City debut in the friendly against Orgryte on Wednesday.
