Yesterday, Goal France claimed that Blaise Matuidi was in England for transfer talks with an unnamed English club.

L’Equipe have now taken the story further by claiming Jose Mourinho is very keen to bring a second Paris-Saint Germain name to Old Trafford, after successfully completing the high-profile Zlatan Ibrahimovic deal.

L’Equipe’s Guillaume Dufy believes Manchester United’s new boss can land his man for as little as €25m.

A Journalist of another French news outlet, Canal Sports, understands that Bayern Munich, along with Manchester United, are in the race to sign the midfielder, who joined the French champions from Saint-Étienne for €7.5m in 2011.
