Erik ten Hag insists Cristiano Ronaldo will still be a Manchester United player after the transfer deadline, while also suggesting the club’s spending will come to an end after the completion of deals for Antony and Martin Dubravka.
United are finalising moves for Ajax winger Antony and Newcastle goalkeeper Dubravka before the close of the window on Thursday.

Asked whether they would be the last new arrivals of the summer, Ten Hag replied “I think so” before adding that it is “clear” Ronaldo will stay at Old Trafford until at least January.
“I think [there won’t be any more signings],” Ten Hag said in a news conference on Wednesday.
“It will be the end for this window, but when there is a great opportunity we always have to be alert at this top club.”
United have been linked with a move for Barcelona right-back Sergino Dest but Ten Hag played down reports right-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka could leave before the deadline despite interest from Crystal Palace and West Ham.
