Manchester United eying Toby and Willian ahead of transfer window

Manchester United eying Toby and Willian ahead of transfer window

Jose Mourinho has shortlisted Chelsea midfielder Willian and Tottenham centre-back Toby Alderweireld ahead of Manchester United’s summer transfer window, according to reports.

Yahoo Sport UK claims that the United manager wants to sign players who boast Premier League experience and are used to the rigorous demands of the English top flight from the outset.

Last summer, Mourinho brought in Henrikh Mkhitaryan but the £26 million signing from Borussia Dortmund did not get up to speed until November.

Alderweireld remains in talks with a new contract with Tottenham but the Belgium international still has a £25 million release clause in his current deal.

Willian, meanwhile, revealed in February that Mourinho was interested in bringing him to Old Trafford last summer.Despite being Chelsea’s best player in the woeful defence of their Premier League title last season, the Brazilian has started only 13 Premier League games under Antonio Conte this term.

And Mourinho is ready to make another move for the 28-year-old following the likely departures of Wayne Rooney and Ashley Young.
