Jose Mourinho set to steal this Manchester United player
By Bence Bocsak
According to the latest reports, Jose Mourinho could lure this Manchester United player to Tottenham in the summer transfer window.
It was the era which was to commence a new dawn at Manchester United. The era which would finally end the perpetual limbo since Sir Alex Ferguson’s departure. The era which would return the glory days to Old Trafford.
Jose Mourinho arrived with so much promise. He was the special one after all. The one who had moulded Chelsea into a dominant force. The one who had led underdogs like Porto and Inter Milan to Champions League glory. The one with a knack for winning trophies.
There was absolutely no reason as to why Jose Mourinho would not succeed at United. The Red Devils had promised to give him all the funds and the necessary resources. It was a match made in heaven.

With a fruitful summer transfer window and a Community Shield victory, big things were expected of Mourinho.
In his first season, the Portuguese did not disappoint. He brought home the Europa League and EFL Cup to secure a double for the Red Devils.
In his second he came narrowly close to lifting the Premier League finishing in second place.
Yet in his third, United’s form dipped, and relations had started to sour at the club.
The Portuguese had ultimately failed. The circumstances at Old Trafford had hardly changed since his arrival.
Players were showing visible signs of discontent. The rainbow cloud had vanished.
Mourinho would be sacked by the club after a poor performance and defeat to arch rivals Liverpool. In his place, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer would arrive.
The Norwegian has done a more amicable job at United than the Portuguese.
Meanwhile, Jose Mourinho finds himself back in London at Tottenham.
And at Spurs, Mourinho faces an even more arduous task.
It seems in his ambition to get Tottenham back to where they belong the Portuguese manager will turn to some of his old United players.
According to Manchester Evening News Tottenham are interested in buying United right back Diogo Dalot in the summer.
Diogo Dalot is not the number one choice at the club, and if the London based side will pay a hefty fee for his services it could be a welcome deal at Old Trafford.
Do you think United should sell Diogo Dalot to Jose Mourinho in the summer?
