However, despite the spending spree, United are said to be open to bringing in fresh legs to help Ten Hag challenge for titles.

According to Express UK, the Dutchman is keen to continue improving the options within his ranks, and the club hierarchy is expected to back him with additional funds to spend.

So who could Man United move for in the next transfer window?

The midfield position is understood to be a key area that Ten Hag is looking to strengthen despite the acquisition of Eriksen and Casemiro.

That said, United are likely to reignite their interest in Barcelona ace Frenkie de Jong.

United were desperate to land the former Ajax star during the summer but were unable to prise away the midfield star.

Leicester City star Youri Tielemans is the other midfielder the Red Devils could make a move for, with the Belgian in the final six months of his contract at the King Power Stadium.

Other players the Old Trafford dwellers could potentially make a move for include Jude Bellingham and Moises Caicedo.

United unsuccessfully tried to sign Bellingham while he was at Birmingham City, but the Englishman opted to move to Borussia Dortmund.

Ten Hag to receive massive budget in January

Earlier Sports Brief reported on Erik Ten Hag's January budget, which is expected to be more than £100 million if Cristiano leaves.

Ten Hag spent over £200 million this past summer and hopes to bolster his squad in January, with Frenkie De Jong still his most preferred target.

If the Old Trafford club doesn't win the title this season, it will be 10 years since they last lifted the coveted trophy.
