Paul Clement says Swansea would be "naive" to ignore the possibility of Premier League relegation when seeking new players in the transfer window.
But he is not giving up on top-flight survival and says his search for new recruits could go to deadline day.
The Swans head coach said "90-95 percent is thinking about bringing in players now to have an impact now".
He added: "But it would be naive to not think beyond that, just from an economic point of view."
Though the Welsh side are bottom of the league, Clement believes they can escape relegation.
