REVEALED: Mourinho has Monaco trio plus Spurs star on £200M shopping list

Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho is planning a triple swoop on Monaco.

The Sun says his targets would cost nearly £200m, bringing his total spend in just a year close to a staggering £350m.

Mourinho wants a new striker — ideally Antoine Griezmann from Atletico Madrid — plus two central midfielders to support £89m world-record buy Paul Pogba, and two full-backs.

As well as £86m-rated Griezmann, Mourinho wants Monaco full-backs Djibril Sidibe (£22m) and Benjamin Mendy (£15m).

To bolster his midfield, he is targeting Tottenham's £40m-rated Eric Dier plus Monaco's Tiemoue Bakayoko (£35m).
