Ross County head coach David Gray expects further transfer business after a defining week, with the team looking to strengthen certain areas of the squad. The Easter Road outfit have already brought in Jason Kerr, Adam Mayor, Azeem Abdulai, Callum Wright, and Nathan Lowe this summer, but Gray believes Hibs are still "a bit thin" in certain areas.

What happened?

Hibs have ended an impressive seven-day spell with a gritty victory over Partick Thistle, with Owen Elding scoring the only goal after 12 minutes. The win sets up a quarter-final clash away to Ross County, with Gray urging his players to be more clinical after passing up numerous chances against the Jags.

Why it matters for Ross County

The match against Partick Thistle was a crucial test for Ross County, and they will be looking to build on their recent form. With Hibs looking to strengthen their squad, Ross County will be eager to take advantage of any potential transfer business.

What comes next?

Ross County's next fixture is against Peterhead at home on November 7, 2026. With the transfer window set to close on September 3, Gray will be hoping to make some key signings to strengthen his squad before then.

As Gray said, "We've got a couple of weeks still, so I do. I think we are still looking, as I've always said, and being consistent with that. I do expect there to be movement both ways to be honest, I think we are a little bit thin in a couple of areas. I think there will be movement either way, and I think that's only natural."
