Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has said he is “optimistic” about making signings in January despite missing out on Erling Haaland.

Haaland has joined Borussia Dortmund from FC Salzburg for around £17.1 million after United turned down the terms of the deal offered by agent Mino Raiola.

Solskjaer is in the market for a midfielder and a forward to bolster his squad and the Norwegian is refusing to rule out additions in the January transfer window.

"I'm always an optimist," Solskjaer said. "I'm optimistic we can keep players fit and if the right ones become available we do have the resources and I do have the backing from the board, but it's also about getting the right ones. It has to be.

"There's no point suddenly bringing someone else in now for the sake of three or four months if that can disrupt any good feeling or chemistry in the group, because the chemistry in the group is really good.
