Mourinho Ready to Seal $71million "Soldier" Signing for Man United

Jose Mourinho ChelseaManchester United have already secured the signing of a top central defender in the form of Eric Bailly, however, new manager Jose Mourinho wants to secure the services of another quality center half in the summer transfer window.
If reports are anything to go by then Mourinho is ready to beat his former club Chelsea and hire the services of Italian defender Leonardo Bonucci.
According to Daily Star, the Portuguese boss is looking for an experienced center back and the £50million ($71million) rated Juventus star perfectly fits the bill.
The 29-year-old Azzurri center back is one of the best defenders in the world and will largely improve Man United’s already strong back line. Not to forget, United had the best defensive record in the PL, along with Spurs, last season.
Motivational coach Alberto Ferrarini claimed that Leo is a “soldier” (Guardian) who always remains strong in the battle. Back in 2014, he stated:

“Over the years I took Bonucci into my basement. Underground. In the dark,”
“There, I offended him in every way possible. I judged him. I insulted him. If he made even the slightest attempt to glance at me, he’d receive a punch straight to the stomach. The objective? To win over judgement, so Leo would always be focused and ignore everything else … That’s how I made him into a soldier.”

Bonucci featured in 36 league games for the Old Lady last season and helped the team keep 21 clean sheets. He also scored 3 goals, provided 2 assists.
Currently, Leonardo is with the national side at the European Championships. The four time World Champions have qualified for the KO stages of the competition after winning their opening two games.
