Jose Mourinho is so adamant he will be Manchester United manager next season that he has lined up a move for £70million striker Gonzalo Higuain, according to the Sunday People.
Napoli rate Argentina international Higuain, who has already scored 32 goals for them this season, so highly they have slapped a £95m valuation on him.
But with only two years left on the 28-year-old’s current deal, the Serie A title challengers are likely to drop the figure.
Former Chelsea, Real Madrid and Inter Milan boss Mourinho told French champions Paris Saint-Germain and close friends last week that he WILL take over at Old Trafford in the summer.

But with only two years left on the 28-year-old’s current deal, the Serie A title challengers are likely to drop the figure.
Former Chelsea, Real Madrid and Inter Milan boss Mourinho told French champions Paris Saint-Germain and close friends last week that he WILL take over at Old Trafford in the summer.
The Special One was sacked for a second time by Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich in December.
But unlike the first time he was dismissed from Stamford Bridge, in 2007, his exit package did not contain a clause forbidding him to work for another English club within two seasons.
Mourinho said during that second spell at Chelsea that if Abramovich dismissed him again he would stay in England, and he has long harboured hopes of managing the Old Trafford giants.
Now he believes he has got his wish with Van Gaal’s roller-coaster two-year reign drawing to an end.
