Ferguson has already spent 12 million pounds (21 million dollars) on defensive duo Nemanja Vidic and Patrice Evra, but is still on the look out for a replacement for skipper Roy Keane in midfield.

Real Madrid's Thomas Gravesen is among the targets, but both United and the Dane's agent John Sivebaek have denied reports that the Red Devils' bid has already been lodged.

"It is possible we could have one more," said Ferguson after their 1-1 League Cup draw with Blackburn. "We are looking at some things at the moment.

"But I am very happy with the two signings I have made. They give us great defensive cover and they are both really good players."

Neither Vidic nor Evra were involved at Ewood Park, although both could be in contention for a place in Ferguson's squad for Saturday's Manchester derby at Eastlands.

Meanwhile, Ferguson cleared up the uncertainty over Paul Scholes' continued absence, confirming the former England man was still suffering from blurred vision rather than a cyst and partial blindness which had been reported.

"I don't know where that came from," he said. "Paul has blurred vision and the recommendation is that he does not play until it has gone - not that we would do that anyway."
