Man Utd and Tottenham are close to agreeing to a deal for Alderweireld

With two defenders on the verge of leaving Manchester United, it only makes sense to bring in a new defender who can freshen things up at the back. Mourinho has long wanted a rock-solid centre-back to partner Eric Bailly. Tottenham Hotspurs defender, Toby Alderweireld is his preferred choice.

Reports suggested that Mourinho was in a dilemma as to choose whether he wanted Maguire or Alderweireld. But now with Maguire potentially priced out of a deal, Alderweireld is the more experienced and sensible option. Reports have also suggested that the fee in question is in the region of £50 million.

Manchester United have already negotiated deals for Darmian and Rojo, but neither of these two defenders will leave the club until the Belgian defender signs.
