First €40 million for defender Eric Bailly plus the imminent arrival of Zlatan Ibrahimovic; now Jose Mourinho is reported to want to spend €100 million to bring PSG midfielder Marco Verratti to Manchester United this summer. Corriere dello Sport claims that the Red Devils will use the 23-year-old Italian international’s friendship with the big Swede as the major factor in bringing him to the Theatre of Dreams. Verratti is currently under contract to the French champions until 2020 and has already stated that he has no intention of leaving the club in the short-term.
