Manchester United and their want for defenders. It feels like this desire for signing won’t leave Mourinho even after the transfer window shuts. One of the first players he had targeted was Toby Alderweireld from Tottenham.

There was a time in 2016-17 when the Belgian was arguably the best defender in the world as he formed an almost unbreakable centre-half pairing with compatriot Jan Vertonghen.

However, he has fallen behind Davinson Sanchez in the pecking order as Spurs could cash in for him with United lurking around. According to Mirror, Spurs have set a £75 million price-tag for their prized asset.
