Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has told club chiefs they must buy a striker in January.
Solskjaer lost both Romelu Lukaku and Alexis Sanchez to Inter Milan in the summer with no replacement brought in.
Still Solskjaer says he has no regrets about letting Lukaku leave Manchester United.
He said: It was time for Rom to go. He knows that. He didn't want to be here. What is the point in having players that don't want to be here?"
Solskjaer says he tried to find a new striker in the summer but simply couldn't get the right man.
He said: There's no point getting players in that you're not 100 per cent sure about.
"When you get players in you need the right ones that are going to stay here for a longer period and that's the long-term thinking we have to show.
I cannot think, 'I need a player because this is my reputation'. No, it's the club."
