Manchester United will not be able to loosen their purse strings in the January transfer window. They might not even have to when it comes to looking at a wildcard option Jose Mourinho rates incredibly highly.
Love him or loathe him, you cannot ignore Mourinho even four years after the charismatic Portuguese was given his P45 and sacked from the Old Trafford hotseat. The 60-year-old is still giving it both barrels as Roma manager in Serie A where he coaches one potential bargain who United could consider swooping for.
Argentina forward Paulo Dybala needs no introduction. United were interested in him in 2019 and he has spent a large part of his career in Italy. Then it was Roma - and Mourinho - who won the last race to sign him in 2022.

Eighteen months on from that transfer, the former Juventus man has scored 22 goals and provided 14 assists from 53 matches in all competitions, underlining his quality in a variety of positions. The left-footer can play as an out-and-out striker, in the No.10 position or less frequently on the right-hand flank.
United have lingering concerns in at least two of those areas. So could Dybala fit the bill?
"My sensation is that [Dybala] was seeking the joy he had lost more than confidence," said Mourinho about the ex-Juventus player in April. "He found it here, with a squad that understands him, a coach that loves him, a position on the field with players and strong characters around him in leadership roles.
"Dybala is a nice boy. He has quality to play for the biggest clubs in the world, but has found joy here."
The quality and joy is severely lacking at Old
