Mourinho wants Roma to sign Man United's Wan-Bissaka?

Roma manager Jose Mourinho has reportedly identified Manchester United defender Aaron Wan-Bissaka as a potential summer signing.

Having won the Europa Conference League in the first season at Stadio Olimpico, Mourinho is now looking to turn Roma into a team capable of qualifying for the Champions League through a top-four finish in Serie A.

The Portuguese allegedly wants to strengthen in a number of areas, including at right-back where a number of alternatives to Rick Karsdorp have been suggested.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Mourinho is monitoring any developments with Wan-Bissaka, who is no longer first choice at Old Trafford.

The 24-year-old's most three recent starts were against Manchester City, Everton and Liverpool, each game ending in defeat and the latest coming as far back as April 19.

However, while Roma are said to be interested in the former Crystal Palace man, it claims that a loan with the option to buy is the only realistic avenue available with the player valued in the region of £25m.
