Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag says he's drawing up an elite shopping list.

Despite clouds over the club's potential sale, Ten Hag is insisting it's business as usual.

"It's not up to me, it is an aspect of the club that other people deal with, the owners," Ten Hag said after victory over Wolves.

I have to develop and to progress the team, and to of course plan. I will go for high standards, so I am planning my squad for next season in the background, with high standards. Then it is up to the others to decide if the finances are there.

I think you have to see the wider perspective. We had many clean sheets, I think the most in the league. But then we also had some bad defeats, and we are not scoring that easily. Today another [opposition] goalkeeper [Wolves debutant Daniel Bentley] is Man of the Match, we do that often, we are very good at that.

In this moment there is no time for happiness or satisfaction - we have to work and to improve. Get the team ready but improve. That is what I demand from my players, my staff and myself."
