Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho wasn’t pleased with his side’s display in Friday’s 1-0 loss to Brighton and intends to make changes to the squad during this summer’s window.
Central Defense, Central midfield, left back are believed to be the areas he intends to strengthen, with Michael Carrick making way and joining the coaching staff. Marouane Fellaini is also expected to depart but Mourinho wants him to stay.
According to reports emanating from several English outlets, the ‘Special One’ is willing to allow French attacker Antony Martial to join Chelsea in the summer in exchange for 80 million euros and Brazilian winger Willian.

Martial, 22, has failed to impress Mourinho in the few instances he’s been given playtime, much recently failing to take his chances in the defeat to Brighton.
Even though Mourinho ruled out the signing of Willian saying ‘Chelsea won’t make it possible’, it is believed that he’s still a fan of the 30-year-old and could lure him to Old Trafford during the transfer window.
“I worked with Brazilian players in every team I coached, and I enjoyed a lot. Who knows we can have a Brazilian in the squad next year. I don’t believe it will be Willian, because Chelsea won’t make it possible,” said Mourinho in a previous press conference.
