Back Premier League: Manchester United cool down talk about January transfers

Manchester United will most likely have a quiet January transfer window, says the club's executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward. He admitted the situation might change if any important long-term targets became available but said the club would not consider "short-term fixes".

The Red Devils spent just over 150 million pounds last summer, including a club record £59.7m transfer of Real Madrid winger Angel Di Maria. The big-money transfers did not turn the cub fortunes around though as Manchester United are currently seventh in the Premier League table.

"We are not looking to enter the market for short-term fixes," said Woodward. "However, we have targets we are looking at for next summer. Should any of them become available in January, which is obviously rare, we will consider acting. But it is a low probability." United also bought Ander Herrera (£28m), Luke Shaw (£27m), Marcos Rojo (£16m) and Daley Blind (£13.8m) last summer and they spent another £6m to bring in Radamel Falcao on loan.

Manchester United are 50/1 at Bet365 to win the Premier League this season.
