Spanish sports daily Marca reports that Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho has told three of his biggest stars that he will not stand in their way if they decide to leave Old Trafford. The Portuguese tactician was referring to goalkeeper David De Gea, striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic and midfielder Ander Herrera.
 

De Gea has been heavily linked with a return to his home city to join Real Madrid with President Florentino Perez willing to table a £60M bid for the Spanish number one. Ibrahimovic is currently in the US undergoing surgery on his damaged knee which will keep him side-lined for around nine months. His current deal at Old Trafford expires in the summer and it’s still not clear what the future holds after his unfortunate lay-off.
 

Mourinho has also reportedly stated that he believes that Herrera has had his head turned by outside interest but stopped short of declaring who that club was.
