Manchester United have made just one signing during the transfer window so far. Donny van Beek has moved to Old Trafford from Ajax in a deal that could rise to £40million. However, the Red Devils continue to be linked with a host of targets ahead of the October 5 deadline.
Giving an update on their transfer plans, United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said: “It’s been a strange time and a strange world.
"Financially, I’m sure loads of clubs have suffered. It looks like it as there has not been a lot of activity in the window.
"We’re always looking to improve the squad, scouting players and, if something fits, both the financial bit and the football bit, of course we’ll try to make some business.
"But we can’t know how the markets and how other clubs have been affected either."

Dortmund are said to be holding firm at £108m (€120m) while United appear reluctant to pay that figure.
