Jose Mourinho wants a reunion with Nemanja Matic. The ManchesterUnited manager is determined to sign a dominant holding midfielder this summer to succeed Michael Carrick and bring the best out of Paul Pogba. Tottenham’s Eric Dier is another target – but there is an acceptance among Old Trafford’s hierarchy that negotiating with Spurs chairman Daniel Levy could be too problematic. Matic is considered a more attainable target in a summer when Chelsea manager Antonio Conte is expected to make significant additions to his PremierLeague title winners. N'Golo Kante is now seen as the heartbeat of Chelsea’s midfield, providing belief at Old Trafford that Conte would be prepared to sell Matic at a price likely to be in excess of £40m.
