    Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has called on the club to sign more players to help improve fortunes at Old Trafford.

    Fernandes snubbed a huge offer to play in the Saudi Pro-League this summer and committed himself to dragging United out of the mess they landed in last season.

    The club has already spent almost £130m this summer on forward players Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo, and also brought Paraguay Under-20 international Diego Leon to the club.

    But Fernandes believes more is required.

    "It was crystal clear we needed more competition for the players that were here and more quality to get everyone to step up to get into the starting XI," he told host broadcaster NBC after United won the Premier League Summer Series thanks to a 2-2 draw with Everton in Atlanta.

    "That's what the club and the manager are trying to do and hopefully we can get one or two players more to help with that."

    In a separate interview with Manchester United's own media channel, chief executive Omar Berrada said the club was working "round the clock" to make the most of any opportunities that arise.

    United's interest in RB Leipzig's Slovenia striker Benjamin Sesko remains high, which also means they would listen to offers for their Danish front-man Rasmus Hojlund.

    However, judging by their performance against Everton, central midfield should also be a priority.

    Uruguay international Manuel Ugarte was at fault for the first Everton goal and no matter what combination of players was paired up in the midfield positions, gaps appeared for David Moyes' side to exploit.

    In addition to his comments on potential signings, Fernandes also demanded more from his current team-mates, saying their performance without the ball had been "lazy".

    He added it was not good enough in a period of time where 450 staff members had lost their jobs and ticket prices had risen sharply as part of a drive to cut costs and maximise revenues to plough back into the first team.

    "I'm happy for the players to have that feeling," said Amorim. "It's saying they understand the situation. That is good."
