Manchester United are considering a second bid for Bournemouth forward Joshua King after their first offer was rejected, but Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says the club are unlikely to make another signing.
United are keen to sign a new striker before Friday’s transfer deadline and it is understood Solskjaer is looking at the Norway international as a possible replacement for the injured Marcus Rashford.
King played under Solskjaer in United’s reserves but was unable to make the breakthrough to the senior team.
However, in his press conference on Friday morning, the United boss played down the possibility of anymore business before the 11pm deadline.
“I don’t think we’ll do any more business. I expect nothing to happen, but that doesn’t mean it won’t happen. I am happy with the ones I have here,” Solskjaer said.“There’s so much speculation in the transfer windows and now it’s probably going to be the summer window that we start on, but I’m very happy with the club and how we’ve conducted things and how we stick to our beliefs and values as well.“We’ve just got to stay true and stay in control so that’s what we have to do and we can’t let the outside know what we’re going to do and what decisions we make.“I try to be respectful of course and I know all the speculations about us. I said about breaking your nose as a striker, maybe Mason (Greenwood) or Anthony (Martial) can break a nose!”
