Memphis Depay signing will not be the last this summer - Man Utd chief

Manchester United chief executive Ed Woodward has insisted that Memphis Depay will not be the only new signing this summer.

The Red Devils have landed the Dutch winger from PSV Eindhoven for £25million and according to Woodward, the transfer action certainly will not stop there.

"The squad will be absolutely deep enough and ready to challenge on all fronts and all competitions next year. That will as ever involve some ins and outs which we will not guide on," he said diplomatically.

"We are delighted with the progress made under Louis van Gaal as first-team manager. With two games remaining we are well-positioned to achieve a top-four finish in the Premier League and therefore return to European football next season.

"In regards to this summer's transfer activity we have already started implementing our plans and last week announced that Memphis Depay, viewed as one of the most exciting young players in Europe, will be joining the first-team.

"We expect to be active again during the window, but it's too early to give guidance on transfers or wages at this point."
