Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is not expecting any Manchester United player to leave the club before Thursday’s transfer deadline.
Matteo Darmian,Antonio Valencia and Andreas Pereira are among those linked with a move but Manchester United caretaker manager Solskjaer does not expect any departures.
“At the moment I can see everyone staying at the club because no deals have been done with anyone, I think,” Solskjaer said in his pre-match conference.
“But then again there are still a few more days, but I’m not too involved in the negotiations.”
“So whatever happens, happens, but it’ll be good to get the window closed so we can just focus on matters, the squad and improving the ones who stay here.”
He also admitted for the first time that he is planning ahead at the club despite been on a short term until the end of the season.
“What Manchester United are going to look like next season, with or without me, it doesn’t matter.”
“I’m here to prepare for next season.”
“We have quite a few talents in that youth team that you’d like to see and will see at some point before next season, to put the club and team in a good position at the end of the season and how will we look like next season.”
“It’s just about the right time. We’ve got Alexis Sanchez, Juan Mata and Romelu Lukaku, who haven’t played so much lately, so they’re three players you have to jump ahead of.”
Solskjaer who has started his interim reign at Old Trafford on an impressive note after winning his first eight games in charge.
The Norwegian will be aiming for his ninth straight win when United host Burnley on Tuesday, with his future remains unclear.
“I love it. It’s what you want. We’ve had some fantastic results, great performances and the improvement I can see in many aspects, just from Tottenham to Arsenal.”
“The way we improved the structure, the ideas, we’ve got to know each other more and they’ve got to know me and what I want from the team.”
“For a few games, everyone said it was just about attacking, attacking, but it’s the other part I’ve been happy about – we haven’t conceded too many chances.”
