Jose Mourinho's patience ran out - this summer, everyone will bid farewell for good to two long-term "Manchester United" club defenders.
At the moment, J. Mourinho is forced to do without Eric Bailly, so the defensive duo consists of Chris Smalling and Phil Jones. This duo, lately, does not convince the Portuguese and he is ready to sell them.
Both defenders make too many individual mistakes, so J. Mourinho has simply decided to start the next season without them. The first candidate to leave the team is C. Smalling, and regarding P. Jones, the strategist may change his mind.
As reported by the same "Daily Mail," J. Mourinho will undoubtedly strengthen the defense and has identified two specific candidates - Raphael Varane and Harry Maguire.
J. Mourinho has been trying to bring his former protégé R. Varane to England for a long time, but he remains loyal to Real Madrid, so the more realistic option is H. Maguire, who has had a great season playing for Leicester.
