"United have already booked a place in at least the Champions League play-offs after winning their opening three matches in the league phase. Their 2-1 win over West Ham at Leigh means they go into the final WSL game before the winter break against Tottenham next Sunday in third spot, just ahead of Spurs and their north London rivals Arsenal."
"I would hope to have one of two players potentially before then. We need three or four in the window. It is a great opportunity to build. The market is crazy but we are talking about it. We need depth so the quality doesn't drop in certain areas when we have to rotate. The (players) won't like it because they won't want to rotate but we need to be aggressive."
Manchester United Women occupy third place in the WSL and have secured at least a Champions League play-off place after winning their opening three league matches. The squad requires reinforcements in defence, midfield and attack to maintain quality during rotation and cover absences. Player availability will be affected by a pregnancy and the Women's Asian Cup in March. Financial constraints and ownership interest create pressure to act quickly. The club aims to bring in multiple players in the January window, with hopes of securing one or two additions before the 10 January Arsenal fixture.
