Man Utd boss Mourinho turns to Atletico Madrid defender Vrsaljko

Atletico Madrid defender Sime Vrsaljko is attracting interest from Manchester United.

The Daily Mail says Jose Mourinho has added the 26-year-old to his list of transfer options this summer.

The United boss is keen to bring in some competition for Antonio Valencia while also easing the burden on the Ecuadorian defender.

The Spanish side are holding out for £30m, which may force Mourinho to look at other possibilities.

Last month, Vrsaljko's agent revealed that Juventus and Napoli were interested in his client but hinted that the Premier League could be an option.
