Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal believes that reports suggesting that he could spend as much as £150m during the January transfer window are "disrespectful" to his players.
According to The Mirror, Van Gaal will be handed a warchest next month to further improve the squad at Old Trafford, but the former Netherlands coach has slammed the reports that emerged on Friday morning.
The Dutchman told reporters: "I think it is disgusting always writing about numbers. I don't think that Ed Woodward or I have said anything about it.
"It's disrespectful to my players and I don't like talking about it. I have to work with the selection I have."
United currently sit in fourth place in the Premier League table.
