Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer insisted his only concern was results on the pitch as the performance of the club’s recruitment department comes under scrutiny in the final days of the transfer window.
United continue to be linked with big-money moves for the likes of Jadon Sancho andOusmane Dembele, but it is a saga that has played out all summer with Donny van de Beek the only major arrival so far.
Even if that changes before Monday’s deadline, fans and former players have grown frustrated with a now familiar story of the club moving too slowly in the market, but Solskjaer refused to be drawn on the matter as he looks to Sunday’s match against Tottenham.

“I’m not going to go into the transfer window now because of course my focus is on Sunday’s game but the club is always working hard to have the strongest possible squad,” he said. “If something happens in or out you’ll get to know.
“We’ve got players here that we believe in. The transfer window is still open for a little while and the club has been working. They know my view and we’re here to strengthen in the long term.
“The main thing now is to get results on the pitch. We need to get results and how are we going to get results on the pitch? There are many, many ways of improving the team. We’re working now inside the four walls and on the pitch to get better. We need to get better.”
