Default Mourinho's summer transfer targets (updated)

Right, all joking aside, the Griezmann u-turn has really thrown a spanner in the works for United given that he has been their number one target since Mou arrived.

Cleary Mourinho wants a defender; a central midfield player; a winger & a forward.

The targets appear to be:

1. Lindelof or Keane
2. Fabinho
3. Perisic
4. could now be one from 5 or 6.

We should be going all out for Kane or Mbappe for the 4th signing. Lindelof, Fabinho, Perisic and Kane/Mbappe would be incredible business! Can see us going for Sanches as well now if he's available. So potentially 5 signings.

The identity of the forward player is the key one for me. Morata or someone like that would be massively underwhelming. Really hope we don't sign some average joe shithouse up top...big pressure on Mou to get it right, there's nqat.

Bakayoko back in play it seems and Pepe on radio today saying he has an offer from "Manchester" in England. Pepe + a younger CB is exactly the dream.

Pepe's agent came out yesterday and said Pepe is joining PSG on a 2 year contract.

Bakayoko is not good enough, Fabinho would be, but we still need another playmaker in midfield, maybe Sanches would be worth a punt, not really seen enough of him.

The continuing presence of Fellaini is a bad news for any notion that our style of football will improve, he's not good enough to be a starter, and takes up a space in the squad.

Is Hames Rodriguez not on the list?

Would love to see the list and especially who the "surprise" is/was

Apparently Inter have said they're not selling Peresic now?

Agreed. Fellaini sickens me to my core the hateful bastard.

Not sure Mou likes playmakers

A new Madrid target is Marco Asensio .. a player Mouriniho thinks highly of apparently.

He definitely gone up in my estimation.

The surprise was we weren't signing Griezmann.

Doesn't really seem to matter what a club wants these days, even if it's Madrid - all about keeping players happy. The bigger question is how they fit Bale, Isco, Ronaldo, Benzema, Asensio, Morata, James and potentially at least 1 other huge signing (Mbappe, for example) into essentially the same 4 positions and keep them sweet.

I suppose if they keep winning European Cups that might help though

Anything is possible if the deal involves De Gea. Could be any of 4 or 5 players if De Gea goes.

Not a chance they sell him. The lad is the future for them IMO, looks a class act.

No it couldn't. He's a goalkeeper ffs..

Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane and defender Sergio Ramos, 31, do not believe the club need to make a move for Manchester United keeper David de Gea, 26.
Truth is, nobody has any idea who is on the list, wouldn't be surprised if we didn't sign a single player we've been heavily linked with and ended up with 4 or 5 nobody expected, tbh.

We should just bid £150million for Monaco's scouting team and try and build long term.
