Jeison Murillo playing for Inter Milan
Wednesday, March 30, 2016
The former Chelsea manager is the heavy favourite to become United's next boss should they decide to sack Louis van Gaal at the end of the season.
And the Portuguese is already putting plans in place to overhaul the current United squad and has Murillo in his sights.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Mourinho will order United's board to sanction a £28m offer for the Colombian.
Murillo only joined Inter from Granada last summer and, despite receiving two red cards, has made a positive impression in his 27 appearances in Serie A.
