Jose Mourinho wants Manchester United to sign Chelsea midfielder Willian before the transfer window closes, according to reports.
The Sun claims that the United manager has made a last-ditch attempt to land the Brazilian on deadline day as he looking to bolster his attacking options.
Mourinho has already admitted that he remains in the market for a right-sided attacker having missed out on a deal for Inter’s Ivan Perisic earlier this summer.
Willian was wanted by Mourinho last year but Chelsea refused to entertain offers from United.
United have already done business with Chelsea this summer as they managed to sign Nemanja Matic in a £40 million deal.
Chelsea, meanwhile, are looking to complete multiple deals on deadline day, one of which is Riyad Mahrez.
Reports are claiming that the Premier League champions are closing in on a £45m deal for the Leicester City winger, while a third bid of £30m has been submitted for Danny Drinkwater.
