MANCHESTER UNITED transfer news is hotting up - and Jose Mourinho is keen to sign five players this summer.
The Red Devils will spend big this summer, with the Special One desperate to keep up with arch-rivals Manchester City next season.
Manchester United finished 19 points behind Pep Guardiola’s men this year as City stormed to the Premier League title, breaking numerous records along the way.
And according to The Times, Mourinho is targeting five deals this summer.
They say the United boss wants Porto right-back Diogo Dalot, Tottenham’s Toby Alderweireld and Shakhtar Donetsk midfielder Fred.
The trio would cost around £120m, with Alderweireld and Fred valued in the region of £50m, while Dalot has a £17.5m release clause.
Mourinho is also in the hunt for a left-back and another central midfielder.
United are set to lose Matteo Darmian and Daley Blind this summer, meaning the Red Devils need defensive reinforcements.
Luke Shaw’s Old Trafford future is also up in the air, with Mourinho publicly criticising the England international on numerous occasions.
