Erik ten Hag wants Manchester United to continue the search for new players until the transfer window closes.

United have already committed £90m on young defender Leny Yoro and forward Joshua Zirkzee.

However, they have had two bids for Everton’s England international Jarrad Branthwaite turned down and they have also been negotiating with Bayern Munich for Matthijs de Ligt, who captained Ten Hag’s Ajax team that reached the Champions League semi-final.

“We work continually,” said Ten Hag.

“It’s good thing we already signed two players, but a club like Manchester United needs to look if there are opportunities to be better and there is time until 31st August.”
