United have already spent big to bring in Victor Lindelof, Nemanja Matic and Romelu Lukaku.

But Mourinho has said the fourth new face might have to wait until next summer - despite chasing Inter Milan's Ivan Perisic all summer.

Mourinho said: "Everyone knows I would like a fourth player and I cannot hide that because I had that in my mind.

"But I am happy if I am not going to have that and I don’t think I am going to have that.

"I was the first to tell my board not to feel any kind of pressure from me in that respect.

"Probably next summer, I will have to try and get a player from a position I think can make us stronger."

While Mourinho has strengthened the spine of his team with a new centre-back, central midfielder and striker, he was keen to add a new winger.

Serie A star Perisic was the main focal point for much of the summer, but the two teams have so far failed to work out a deal.

There was a host of speculation suggesting Inter would only conclude a deal if Anthony Martial was sent the other way - with Mourinho not keen to lose the Frenchman.

Now Mourinho, who has led his team to two 4-0 wins so far this season, looks set to battle on with the players at his disposal.
