And according to the Daily Mail, the Portuguese manager could turn his attentions to the Bayern Munich forward after turning his back on Ivan Perisic.

The pair know each other well from their time at Chelsea where Robben helped fire the Blues to two Premier League titles between 2004 and 2006.

But at the age of 33, he could only been seen as a stop-gap until Mourinho finds a younger talent to bleed into the first-team.

Robben is in the last year of his deal with the German champions and could be available at a cut-price fee.

He still has plenty to offer having bagged 13 goals and assisted nine in 21 Bundesliga starts last campaign.

Manchester United legend Gary Neville recently claimed that his former club need a player 'similar to Arjen Robben' to win the title.

And there is value to be had in Alexandre Lacazette.

He told Sky Sports: "I’d name a player similar to Arjen Robben - a wide player. [Marcus] Rashford did very well but is he a wide player? Not really.

"I’m talking about someone who can generally play left side. If you could add one world-class winger to add to the squad you could say it was a complete squad…they are covered everywhere, they have such strength."

Meanwhile United are bracing themselves for a bid from Juventus for Marouane Fellaini.

The Italian champions want the Belgian to partner incoming midfielder Blaise Matuidi.
