Willian could hold key to Tottenham landing Anthony Martial
Manchester United are reportedly preparing a £60 million bid to bring Chelsea winger Willian to Old Trafford this summer, , with manager Jose Mourinho having been linked with an approach for his former star for some time.
Chelsea were unwilling to sell at that time, but it is possible that Willian could be interested in a new challenge after apparently growing frustrated with life at Stamford Bridge, He managed a combined 25 goals and assists in 55 appearances in 2017/18, but only 20 of his 37 Premier League outings actually came as a starter.

Tottenham meanwhile, have become frustrated at United’s assertion that Anthony Martial will not be sold this summer , after Mauricio Pochettino made the Frenchman a priority target last month , as he looks to bolster the supply line to Harry Kane next term.
However, Martial’s revelation that he could be vital for Spurs, as And he’s backed up his words, selling two-time Chelsea Player of the Year Juan Mata to his current club in 2014.

The Red Devils are currently stacked in terms of depth for the left wing, with Marcus Rashford struggling to start games over January signing Alexis Sanchez, but wide-right is somewhat scarce and Willian would undoubtedly improve United’s balance for the better.
Although the manager would prefer the Frenchman went abroad, if he asked for the move to north London, Willian’s transfer to United would undoubtedly improve Pochettino’s chances of securing his key man. United will also be buoyed by their recent business with the west Londoners, having surprisingly secured the signing of Nemanja Matic from Stamford Bridge last summer.
