Manchester United broke the transfer record to hire the services of Paul Pogba last summer. If reports are anything to go by then Mourinho looks to add another midfielder in the form of Cesc Fabregas next summer.
The former Barcelona star was bought by Jose when he was in charge of Chelsea. Cesc was absolutely brilliant in his first season with the Blues and helped them win the Premier league title.
This season, the 29-year-old Spanish international has mostly warmed the bench under the management of Antonio Conte, who has preferred the likes of Matic and Kante in his midfield. Cesc has proved to be a great impact maker from the bench.
In 12 starts (all competitions), the ex Arsenal captain has directly contributed in 13 goals (5 goals and 8 assists).
Conte has recently praised Cesc and described him as a “genius”. However, a player of his caliber cannot continue to start on the bench and may move next summer. Reports suggest that AC Milan want to lure him and even Mourinho is looking to agree his signing if Chelsea opt to sell him (Telegraph).
Fabregas currently earns (Daily Star) £156,000-a-week ($193,000-a-week) and his contract will expire in the summer of 2019.
Jose already has Pogba, Herrera, Carrick and Fellaini in the central midfield. As far as the defensive midfield is concerned, Morgan Schneiderlin was sold in the winter window and now the Portuguese manager must sign a solid DM next summer.
In your opinion, should Mou sign Fabregas or a holding midfield star?

there’s no need to sign Fabregas, instead a star holding midfielder will be perfect
United don’t need fabregas. DM is needed. I wud prefer rabiot
Rooney can do anything he wants he just needs to take a look at zlatan then pick up his professionalism and then apply him self to the man u cause then there’s no need anybody else.
Its better to sign a DM in the calibre of Rabiot or Williams to add concrete cover for our back four.
