Manchester United legend Roy Keane has concerns about the upcoming summer transfer window.

The Red Devils are likely to finish second in the Premier League behind rivals Manchester City.

They could also win the Europa League, as they face Villarreal in the final.

But speaking after United's 4-2 home loss in the Premier League to Liverpool, Keane was concerned the club would not spend big on new players.

"It was always going to happen. He's obviously done very well for the club," Keane told Sky Sports regarding veteran striker Edinson Cavani signing a one year contract extension.

"I worry about the bigger picture now, they might think that will be enough for the club in terms of the attacking players for next season, but I still think United need to go out and buy big if they want to go back to winning league titles.

"The group they have at the moment are still nowhere near good enough to win titles. You need a big squad of players, we've seen the best squad with Man City at the moment, they're competing.

"United's squad is not good enough at the moment, we saw that the other night against Leicester, if any time you needed proof, that was it - the back-up players weren't good enough.

"I mentioned a few weeks ago that they needed one or two, they probably need four or five players to compete with Man City."
