Rumour Reel: Drinkwater Man Utd return, Toure to Turin and Courtois to Real?

Robbie Purves | September 21, 2016

Fresh off the back of a mammoth spending spree this summer, Jose Mourinho could be about to continue splashing the cash in January with a Danny Drinkwater Manchester United return linked in today’s back pages.

Drinkwater to Man Utd

The 26-year-old league winning Leicester City midfielder was a vital cog in Claudio Ranieri’s conquering side last term, and has reportedly caught the eye of Mourinho.

Drinkwater was a Red Devil youth player and, like Paul Pogba, was let go without making an impression in the first team. According to reports, Mourinho would want the England midfielder to carry out defensive duties and allow Pogba to push further forward and wreak havoc.

Old Trafford welcome the Foxes on Saturday, giving the Portuguese coach a chance to see him up close.

Toure to Turin?

Yaya Toure and Pep Guardiola haven’t seen eye-to-eye since their days at Barcelona and the feud has spilled over to Manchester.

Toure’s outspoken agent is clearly angling for a move away from the Etihad and his client has reportedly garnered interest from Italy. According to reports, both Juventus and Inter Milan are looking to seal a deal for the 33-year-old who has not played a minute of Premier League football so far this term.
