Crystal Palace v Chelsea - Premier League
Willian hasn't been getting sufficient game time this season

Mourinho was left frustrated at United's failure to land Ivan Perisic during the 2017/18 summer transfer window and even made a last-ditch attempt to sign Willian in an attempt to strengthen his flanks.

United's limitations on the flanks were exposed on numerous occasions this season and Mourinho will look to add a player who can solve this problem and give him width.

According to reports, Manchester United are ready to launch a fresh bid for the Chelsea star Willian in January. Willian has fallen down the pecking order at Chelsea with Antonio Conte preferring to play Pedro in his favoured 3-4-3 formation.

The Brazilian international is one of Mourinho's most trusted lieutenants and will address a lot of problems at United. With his pace and trickery, Willian can add a new dimension to United's attacking play. The 29-year-old has a lot of experience in the Premier League and will straightaway walk into Mourinho's line up at United.
