Manchester United manager David Moyes has been told that he will have an unlimited budget to spend this summer.

The Red Devils have been linked with moves for Gareth Bale and Barcelona midfielder Thiago Alcantara this summer, but so far no bids have been made.

Moyes told reporters: "Isn't it great that the club says, 'There's no budget here, you go get who you want to get, just go and do it'?.

"We are looking at the best players. I do think it's important that we show people we are carrying on the traditions and trying to take the club forward."

United have signed only one player this summer so far, securing a deal for Uruguayan defender Guillermo Varela.
