According to reports from the 'Mirror,' Manchester United are closely following the development of the Shaktar Donetsk Brazilian centre midfielder. Fred is also on the shopping list of rival Pep Guardiola who tried to sign him in the January transfer window.
Should Fred make the move to Old Trafford, the doors will open for Pogba's departure. The 25-year-old's poor performances of late have seen his role at United questioned.
It's thought that Mourinho is planning a 'clean-out' of the dressing room at the end of this season and fans in Manchester are expecting big changes in the midfield and attack. Given the Brazilian's quality, the United manager will be hoping he'll be the player to strengthen his squad.
