Jose Mourinho watched former side Chelsea lift the title yesterday after winning their 30th PL game of the season. On the other hand, his Man United team finished 6th.
After spending heavy cash on top quality players last summer, the Red Devils have finished no fewer than 24 points behind the champions and that is just not good enough.
Jose needs to step up big time next season and is ready to splash more cash to further reinforce his squad this summer. If reports in the media are anything to go by then the former Blues boss is once again interested in Nemanja Matic.
The Serbian international was linked with Man United last summer and even in the winter transfer window as well.
Now, according to an exclusive report covered by the Sun, Mourinho is ready to finally secure his signature in a deal worth 35 million pounds ($45.4million).
Matic was a key member of the Chelsea side that won the 2014-15 title under the management of Jose. He was also fantastic in this season’s title winning campaign under Conte. In 35 PL appearances, the 28-year-old star scored 1 goal and provided 8 assists.
Manchester United let go Morgan Schneiderlin in January and did not replace him. They clearly lack a solid defensive midfielder in the team and must sign one this summer. Jose knows all about the qualities of Matic and he would be a top signing for the Red Devils.
The former Benfica midfielder is contracted with the Stamford Bridge club until 2019 and currently earns (Star) £90,000-a-week. In your opinion, should Jose sign Matic?

if Eric Dier is available we don’t need him, but if otherwise let Jose grab him fast.
I don’t rate matic, there are better skillful MD out there,, signing on a £35m is just a joke, 29yrs??? Get the likes of strootman or even bakayoko unsteady.
We don’t need him, jose should be looking for dier and bakayoko right now…
No no please i dont agree with that age 29year’s better eric dier or strootman, thank you. Boss please spend our resources wise very important defense no1
Eric dier could be a better option than Matic who is aged already
Please sign Matic, he is the perfect type for our game
Man United should buy complementary players. If they are taking Bernardo Silva, they should also take Bakayoko and Fabinho . They have proved their effectiveness already.
