But Mourinho wants the Old Trafford hierarchy to get cracking on deals after employing a similar tactic last year.



United spent over £150million on Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Eric Bailly and Paul Pogba, with Mourinho delighted by his team’s speed at securing the agreements.

And the Portuguese tactician now wants a repeat as he targets stars including Antoine Griezmann, Alvaro Morata and James Rodriguez.

Mourinho told BT Sport: “Ed Woodward has my list, what I want, what I would like for more than two months.

“So now it’s up to him and the owners. But I don’t care about football for now.”

Reflecting on an emotional night in Stockholm, Mourinho added: “We totally deserved the win. I am so happy to see the boys with the crutches with the trophy and now I am on holiday.

“I don’t want to see any international friendlies, I am selfish. I can’t do it. For me, enough is enough. It has been a very hard last few months, we were short of numbers.

“Three trophies in one season and the Champions League. I am very happy in my most difficult season as a manager.”
