Mourinho sets sights on Ivan Perisic for Man Utd
Manchester United are reportedly ready to step up their interest in Inter Milan winger Ivan Perisic.
United tried to sign the 29-year-old last summer but couldn’t get the deal done. He won’t be cheap this time around after helping Croatia to reach the World Cup final. Inter tied him down to a new deal in September too.
But Jose Mourinho has wanted a winger in Perisic’s mould for a while now. He’s quick and skilful but also very hard-working.
If he does arrive at Old Trafford, it could pave the way for Anthony Martial to move on. The French forward wants a fresh start after two frustrating years under Mourinho.
We’ve got Tottenham Hotspur as 5/2 favourites to sign Martial. United would prefer to sell him abroad, with Juventus at 4/1. Chelsea are back at 9/2.
