Fergie unlikely to splash cash
Date published: 19 May 2010
SIR Alex Ferguson may add only one more player to his Manchester United squad this summer.
United chief executive David Gill has indicated money is available, but Ferguson revealed he is happy with the balance of the squad.
The United manager has already signed rising Mexican star Javier Hernandez from Guadalajara and defender Chris Smalling from Fulham. More are expected to follow.
Ferguson will place his trust in his existing squad and his latest crop of youth and reserve players if he is unable to pinpoint any new signings.
The club will have a training camp in Chicago, followed by friendlies against Celtic in Toronto on July 16, the Philadelphia Union in Philadelphia on July 21, the Kansas City Wizards in Kansas four days later, and the MLS All–Stars in Houston on July 28.
Ferguson will give his World Cup players leave of absence from the tour, which will then move on to Mexico for one game.
