From Sky: Manchester United in talks to sign brilliant winger for over £36million

Jose Mourinho has always been one for surprises when it comes to making signings. Last summer, the transfer of Eric Bailly came out of absolutely nowhere and it was a wonderful piece of business, now, we’re getting some solid links to a player we hadn’t been linked with until last night.

The man in question is Inter Milan’s Ivan Perisic. Now 28, the Croatian is in transfer talks with Manchester United according to Sky Sports News. Their sources say that a fee for the player will be in excess of £36million if the deal goes ahead.

Perisic has been in the Serie A since 2015 when he moved from Wolfsburg, and contributed 10 goals and 6 assists in the Italian top flight this term.

We’ve not really had any wingers who have absolutely nailed down their position in the team, and no doubt Mourinho knows that, hence why he is seemingly chasing a winger.

The Inter Milan player is known for possessing a knack for firing deadly crosses into the box, as well as having the ability to beat his marker with a quick turn of pace. Obviously, finding the back of the net 10 times is also a pretty good output for a wide man.


In my opinion, this would be an underwhelming signing but you have to trust the manager 100% He made four signings last summer and every single one of them worked wonderfully well. I’d expect the same again ahead of the 2017/18 season.
