7 players Jose Mourinho could look to to save money

Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho thinking up targets to try and salvage some sort of positivity out of his United tenure, Mirror Football reports 7 youngster names Mourinho could turn to. Nishan Burkart The Swiss youngster scores goals for fun in the development squads and could potentially be ready to make a Marcus Rashford-esque entrance into the first team squad. Angel Gomes Able to play anywhere across the attacking midfield three, Gomes could be the most exciting academy prospect United have had since Rashford. Joel Pereira Originally picked up by Mourinho from his native Portugal, Pereira has been touted a future United number one by his manager, and rightly so. Axel Tuanzebe He spent the season on loan at Championship side Aston Villa and alongside the likes of John Terry It has greatly aided his development and his footballing maturity. Timothy Fosu-Mensah The promising Dutchman rose to fame under his compatriot Louis van Gaal when Antonio Valencia was suffering with injury and Matteo Darmian was covering for Luke Shaw on the left. He naturally grew into the right-back role and his pace and strength enabled him to mould easily into a bullish yet top-class full-back. Millen Baars Baars almost as exciting as Angel Gomes in the sense that he has electric pace and an eye for a pass. His crossing attributes will be something valued by Mourinho, who likes his sides whip crosses into a typical number 9 centre forward. Tahith Chong Chong was on the radars of Barcelona and Real Madrid before signing for United from Ajax-and his flamboyance and confidence give him a true Cristiano Ronaldo feel about him.
