#2 Nikola Milenkovic
Jose Mourinho had intentions of signing Nikola Milenković in the upcoming winter transfer window. Now without the "Special One", United could still go ahead and bid for the Serbian centre-back. The 21-year-old has a bright future and Manchester United could provide Milenkovic the spotlight at the biggest stages of world football.
Nikola Milenkovic will not come cheap as his contract with ACF Fiorentina runs till 2022. The £32m defender has been a rock at the back for Fiorentina this season, averaging 1.6 tackles per game. The Serbian defender also has an eye for long passes and has shown strong aerial ability. If the Red Devils could land Milenkovic in Old Trafford, they will surely be strengthening the defense for the future.
If Manchester United are able to sign Nikola Milenkovic and Kalidou Koulibaly, they could become a successful partnership in the footsteps of the iconic Manchester United duo of Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic.
