Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has revealed he does not intend to spend big in the January transfer window.

United have been linked with a handful of attacking players, including West Ham United striker Carlton Cole and VfL Wolfsburg's Edin Dzeko.

However, Ferguson is reluctant to pay the inflated fees that are often a characteristic of January trading, and has hinted that he is content with the current composition of his squad.

"I would like to do business, but only if the prices are right - and that can be a problem in January," he told The Mail on Sunday.
