Erik ten Hag has refused to rule out making loan signings to combat the injuries and illness that threaten to derail Manchester United’s bid to salvage their troubled season. Ten Hag was without at least 10 senior players for Monday’s 2-0 win at third tier Wigan in the FA Cup third round.
Denmark midfielder Christian Eriksen missed the tie due to illness, while Brazil winger Antony was injured.
With the January transfer window open, the Dutch coach was asked if United would consider temporarily deals as well as permanent signings. “We consider everything. So what is in the best interests of the players and also the best interests for us, the team, for Manchester United. So we’ll see how we progress during the window,” he said. United are out of the Champions League and League Cup and are languishing in eighth place in the Premier League, nine points adrift of the top four — SuperSport.
