Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has again confirmed plans to be busy in this summer's transfer market.
Ferguson has reiterated he will spend this summer in order to stay ahead of the chasing pack in the Premier League and attempt to close the gap on European champions Barcelona.
"I'm looking at possibly a couple, maybe three signings, which would boost our overall quality in the team," Ferguson told Inside United.
"Of course, the way we're looking at it is we have Ryan Giggs coming towards the end of his career and Gary Neville's already retired.
"Edwin van der Sar announced his retirement and there are holes we want to plug in terms of the safety and security of the team in the next few years."
