Jose Mourinho's Manchester United oversaw yet another disappointing performance at Old Trafford, as the Red Devils drew 0-0 to Crystal Palace.

On that note, let's have a look at the transfer stories concerning Manchester United today.

If reports from the Metro are to be believed, Premier League clubs Chelsea and Arsenal are said to be interested in signing Manchester United midfielder Andreas Pereira. The Red Devils are also said to be open to the prospect of selling the Brazilian in January.

Pereira has struggled to cement a place in the starting XI, having appeared only 5 times for Manchester United this season. With Mourinho having a plethora of experienced midfielders at his disposal, the 22-year-old's chances of first-team football appear bleak at the moment.

Both Chelsea and Arsenal are said to be interested in the midfielder, who is currently valued at £10 million. Valencia are also said to be one of the interested parties given Pereira's successful loan spell with them last season.

According to Metro, Jose Mourinho is said to be interested in bringing West Ham attacker Marko Arnautovic to Old Trafford in January. The Red Devils are ready to pay £50 million for the attacker.

Arnautovic joined West Ham from Stoke City last year and has emerged as a vital cog in the system with 16 goals in 42 games for the Hammers. Mourinho has previously worked with the Austrian at Inter.

The Red Devils boss is apparently in the search of a goalscorer, so as to ease the pressure on misfiring striker Romelu Lukaku, who is without a goal in 11 games for the club.

#1 Inter Milan planning players-plus-cash deal for Paul Pogba

According to the Mirror, Inter Milan's new CEO Beppe Marotta has set his sights on bringing Paul Pogba to San Siro.

The Frenchman's future at Manchester United is under intense scrutiny, with his former club Juventus also planning to bring him back to Italy. However, Marotta plans to make an audacious bid by offering two layers and cash in lieu for the midfielder.

The new CEO is ready to let Milan Skriniar and Ivan Perisic go the other way. Both players have been on United's wishlist for a long time.

Mourinho is already said to be weighing up a bid for Milan Skriniar, who is valued at £75m, to sort out the defensive frailties at Old Trafford. Ivan Perisic is priced at £48 million.
