Neymar
Mourinho, as SPORT have learned from Manchester, is calling Neymar regularly to invite him to leave Barcelona and sign for Manchester. It is his usual way of functioning – the coach likes taking part in these conversations himself in the first phase of a potential signing. Speaking to the player, explaining to him what the transfer would do for his career, what it would be like to work under his orders, and so on. This what he is doing with Neymar.
Those close to Mourinho say that he believes that Neymar would the the ideal signing for Manchester United to cover a gap they have in their forward line. The English side, sixth in the Premier League —somewhere that would now allow them to reach the Champions League—have struggled for goals in the competition. In 25 games they have notched 38 goals. Ibrahimovic is the top scorer with 15, and after come midfielders like Mata (6) and Pogba (4).
