United boss demands club move for promising Spaniard

 

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has demanded the club make a move for midfielder Saul Niguez this summer, reports the Daily Star.

 

The Spain international only recently penned a new deal with Atletico Madrid, but Mourinho is hoping to bolster the squad with the youngster when the transer window re-opens.

 

Saul Niguez gained a WhoScored rating of 7.37 in La Liga this season, enough to earn a place in WhoScored's young team of the season.
