Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho has reportedly told the club to sign Chelsea midfielder Nemanja Matic this summer.
The Serbian star has been a standout performer for the Blues this term, striking a formidable partnership with N’Golo Kante as they helped Chelsea to a victorious campaign, winning the Premier League title.
Mourinho who bought Matic back to the Stamford Bridge from Portuguese side Benfica during his second spell with the club, has now started efforts to have the midfielder make a summer switch to United.
The Red Devils have been linked with a move for Tottenham Hotspur midifielder Eric Dier who has been touted as a viable replacement for fellow Englishman Michael Carrick at the Old Trafford. But recent reports have it that United have shifted their focus on sealing a deal for Matic instead.
