Mourinho to make shock move for Barkley
Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho is set to make a shock move for Everton’s Ross Barkley this summer.
Barkley has just one year left on his current Everton contract, and the club are coming under increasing pressure to either get him to sign a new one or just sell him.
It’s been revealed by the Daily Mirror that Mourinho tried to sign Barkley for Chelsea during his time at Stamford Bridge. He saw a £35million bid rejected for the England international.
Manager Ronald Koeman has already given Barkley an ultimatum, sign a new £100,000 a week deal or be sold this summer.
Spurs are also in for the playmaker but United will prove strong rivals in the hunt to sign him.
