    Man Utd are also\u00a0said to be one of the clubs keen on Sporting Lisbon playmaker Bruno Fernandes,\u00a0with club president Frederico Varandas already admitting the 24-year-old\u00a0could be the “most expensive”<\/a> sale in\u00a0Leoes’\u00a0history.<\/p>\n

    The Norwegian coach has now confirmed, ahead of the club’s summer tour to Australia and the Far East, that United are currently hoping to get two new deals over the line.<\/p>\n

    He told MUTV (via Evening Standard<\/a>): “We\u2019ve been good in the market. Still working on a case or two.\u00a0I\u2019ve been in touch with Joel (Glazer) and Ed (Woodward) and recruitment over summer.<\/p>\n

    “There will probably be some more business done, but we are happy with what we have done so far.\u00a0We want players who can get us off the edge of their seats. They are hungry and at the start of their careers. They are here now.<\/p>\n

    “We don\u2019t expect them to set the world alight in their first day. But they have an ‘X Factor’. It is about them coming in, being themselves and show they want to take someone\u2019s place. That should spur others on.”<\/p>\n
