Jose Mourinho has 'five-man midfield wishlist'

Jose Mourinho has reportedly narrowed down his midfield wishlist to five players, as the Manchester United boss looks to strengthen in the middle of the park this summer.

The Red Devils have already reached an agreement with Shakhtar Donetsk player Fred, according to Sky Sports News.

Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic is also on United's radar, Manchester Evening News reports, but the club are not willing to pay the £87.5m valuation of the player.

Nice's Jean Michael Seri has also been linked with a move to Mourinho's side, although Arsenal, Chelsea and Napoli are all reportedly interested in the 26-year-old as well.

The report adds that Arturo Vidal of Bayern Munich and Marco Verratti of Juventus are also being considered, while Jorginho remains a player of interest.
