Manchester United reportedly have no intention of making a January approach for Borussia Dortmund winger Jadon Sancho.
With Alexis Sanchez on the brink of joining Romelu Lukaku at Inter Milan, United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer now has fewer options in the final third of the pitch.
Regardless of how they perform during the first half of the campaign, there is likely to be constant speculation regarding potential replacements being signed at the beginning of 2020.
However, according to the London Evening Standard, Solskjaer will not attempt to bring in any high-profile players at the midway point of the season.
United hold a long-standing interest in Sancho, who has previously spent time with the Manchester City academy setup, but it appears that an official bid will not be made until next summer.
United currently sit in fifth place in the Premier League standings.
