While United supporters have to wait for the club to enter the transfer market this summer, they have had to contend with constant speculation over the futures of Ruud van Nistelrooy and Cristiano Ronaldo. Furthermore, Gabriel Heinze has also been linked with a move to Real Madrid and, although the Argentinian has quashed this rumour, The Red Devils have jetted out to South Africa for their pre-season tour with some concerns over next term's first-team plan. Queiroz would not openly confirm United are actively pursuing any specific transfer targets but stressed the Old Trafford outfit will not be selling their top names. "Of course, I've been doing that every day [speaking to Ronaldo]," he told Sky Sports News. "There's no problems with that. "No doubts. I think everybody knows during this period of the season, the press have some speculations, but we keep cool. What is important is what the players and the club are doing to be sure, next season, those players will be part of our family. "We are doing something to improve the team, doing that all the time, regarding the players from last season, we are not ready to lose our best players. "Of course we are doing our best to improve all the time. Not only buying players but also promoting players. In this camp, this tour, it's a great opportunity to assess those young players but, in all areas of the club, we are always working hard to improve the club and, of course, the outcome of our work." Queiroz stressed the tour will hand opportunities to some of the younger players, even though it seems to include some players whose long-term futures may not be in Manchester. "What is important now is to be sure everybody, the team and the squad, everybody is ready to start the new season," he explained. "It's a compromise [the squad]. It's part of our preparation with some young players but it's important we represent Manchester. "We need to honour the name of our club. "It's an opportunity to assess the young players, see what we can expect from them during the season."
