Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson insists there is no need to add to his squad when the transfer window reopens in January.
It was claimed United would make a number of high-profile signings after Wayne Rooney initially questioned the club's ambition and ability to attract the world's top players.
But Ferguson does not see the need to bring in a single fresh face when the transfer window reopens, with a number of key players set to return to fitness for the second half of the campaign.
He said in The Independent: "We won't be buying in January, definitely not.
"If you want someone to play in Europe, you are limited right away. There are hundreds of players cup-tied.
"You have five months left of the season, I will have Antonio Valencia back hopefully towards the end of February, which is a new player coming back.
"If Michael Owen gets back, it is another new player coming back. So with the squad I've got, I don't see any reason for us to buy anyone."
