Former Manchester United defender Gary Neville has claimed that Sir Alex Ferguson will bring a number of new players to Old Trafford this summer.

Following Monday's derby loss against Manchester City, Ferguson's men are in danger of missing out on the Premier League title and Neville is confident that his former boss will bring in new recruits.

Neville said: "I'm sure he'll improve his squad.

"I think he has to. He's an honest person and he'll recognise there are areas of the squad he needs to strengthen."

Lille midfielder Eden Hazard is believed to be one of Ferguson's main targets.
