The invention relates to a method for reducing starch content of an aqueous phase, which is removed from a fibre stock preparation in a manufacturing process of paper, board, tissue or the like. The fibre stock preparation comprises a thickening step, where a fibre stock comprising cellulosic fibres originating from recycled fibre material and/or broke as well as starch dispersed in an aqueous phase is thickened from a first concentration to a second concentration by removing a part of the aqueous phase from the fibre stock. A cationic polymer obtained by copolymerisation of (meth)acrylamide and at least 25 mol-% of solely cationic monomer(s), having a standard viscosity SV of at least 1.7 mPas, is added to the fibre stock at the latest at the thickening step in order to associate the starch with the cellulosic fibres of the fibre stock.
