Manchester
United manager Jose Mourinho has reportedly been left frustrated by the club's
failure to land his transfer targets quickly. The Red
Devils have brought in just the one recruit - Victor Lindelof from Benfica for
a reported £35m figure.
It is
believed that Mourinho told United's executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward before
the end of last season that he needs five new players to launch a serious
Premier League title challenge.
According to
The Mirror, Mourinho is exasperated by the club's inability to bring in new
faces before the team fly out to the United States this Sunday for their
pre-season tour, with deals for Real Madrid forward Alvaro Morata and Chelsea
midfielder Nemanja Matic being dragged out.
It is also
understood that the manager was not hugely impressed by Woodward's decision to
fly out to New Zealand to watch the British and Irish Lions face the All Blacks
in their first Test.
