Ten Hag: Man Utd have to strike before Deadline Day if opportunity arises

Erik ten Tag is urging Manchester United to "strike" in the remaining days of the January transfer window should an opportunity arise.

The market for buying and selling players closes at 11pm on Tuesday night with United having only added goalkeeper Jack Butland and striker Wout Weghorst on loan deals until the end of the season

With just four days until the window closes, Ten Hag believes the club "should go for it" if there is a chance to make a signing and has identified areas of the squad that need strengthening

"In the coming days, should we have an opportunity, I would go for it but it's not only up to me. I think that always has to be the approach at this club," he said.

"Every day you have to get better so if there are opportunities to get better then you have to strike, that's my approach. I'm looking, doing research, I have an idea and have profiles to strengthen the squad."
