One of the hottest player in the Portuguese league at the moment has been linked to join Manchester United.
According to report from Goal.com, the Red Devils are on the quest to sign Porto’s forward Andre Silva.
The 21-year old Portuguese has been on sparkling form this season, having found the back of the net seven times in eight league appearances.
The young starlet known for his speed and dazzling skills could operate both as a winger and a striker and could spark up the English Premier league with his brilliance after being a revelation this season for Porto.
However, the highly rated forward will not come cheap as he has a £52.1m buy-out clause in his contract which he penned down ahead of 2016/17 campaign.
It is also reported that a host of top European teams such as Real Madrid, Barcelona and Manchester City are also interested in the services of Silva.
A versatile player, Silva could be a new revelation for Mourinho if he eventually joins the Red Devils in the coming transfer window. It is believed that United won’t bulge at the fee and could pay for the striker cum winger.
Mourinho could use his influence and relationship he has with his former club to lure the striker, who has four goals in five appearances for his senior national team to Old Trafford.
