Jose Mourinho has reportedly made Wesley Sneijder his number one transfer target, should he replace Louis van Gaal as the new manager of Manchester United.
The ex-Chelsea boss is currently the favourite with the bookmakers to succeed the supposedly under-pressure Van Gaal, who was believed to have been the subject of a hastily arranged board meeting earlier today.
According to The Sun, if United decide to sack Van Gaal and then turn to Mourinho, the 52-year-old has identified Sneijder as the high-calibre playmaker that the Red Devils are currently lacking.
Mourinho and Sneijder previously worked together at Inter Milan, where they won a Serie A, Coppa Italia and Champions League treble five years ago.
The Netherlands international, 31, is currently contracted to Turkish side Galatasaray until 2018.
