Manchester United won't pursue any stop-gap solutions during the remaining days of the transfer window.

United will instead focus on prime targets.

United had already accepted they would have to wait until the summer to try to sign Netherlands midfielder Kevin Strootman given Roma's unwillingness to sell this month, while the player has also suffered a new knee injury.

Club sources state that they initially drew up a list of 12 potential signings for this window, with those players divided into "top priority" and "secondary priority."
