Even after the appointment of Jose Mourinho, the club spent close to £ 150 million on players like Paul Pogba and Henrikh Mkhitaryan. Yet, there has been little joy in the campaign – even after the League Cup victory – as the club at facing an uncertain future with regard to a top four finish.

Manchester United are keen on signing Uruguay international Jose Gimenez but manager Jose Mourinho is being tactical with his methods.

Manchester United manager José Mourinho has confirmed that he has already drawn up a list of players who he would like to bring in the summer.

The list of names, which is likely to contain Atletico Madrid forward Antoine Griezmann, has been given to the United board, according to the Portuguese.
