(Reuters) - Manchester United have work to do in the transfer market in the close season if they are to get back to their best, manager Erik ten Hag said on Thursday.

United are sixth in the Premier League standings with 54 points, 13 fewer than fourth-placed Aston Villa and six below Tottenham Hotspur in fifth place. The Old Trafford side have four matches left in the league season.
