When it comes to the last line of defence, Toby Alderweireld is a beast who is quick, strong, and reads the game like nobody else. He has proven his mettle in the Premier League since joining Tottenham Hotspur from Atletico Madrid in 2015.

Currently, he is one of the best centre-backs in the league who also plays as a right back if needed.

His experience in the Premier League will surely help United's defence. The Belgian could form a dominating partnership with Victor Lindelof or Eric Bailey, and provide Mourinho with more options. The 29-year-old was targeted by The Red Devils in the summer transfer window, but the deal collapsed.

Toby had an amazing World Cup campaign, with the Belgian national team finishing third. Approaching the end of his tenure at Tottenham, the Belgian defender is unlikely to renew his contract, as he is looking for a new challenge.

Spurs would be looking to cash in on the player during the January window, rather than letting him join another team for free in the summer.
