The January transfer window is less than two months away, and with Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho still not fully satisfied with his squad, the Old Trafford club are expected to be active in the transfer market.

Jose Mourinho has criticized some of his players in recent weeks for not being tough enough to play through the pain barrier. ‘There is a difference between the brave, who want to be there at any cost, and the ones for who a little pain can make a difference,’ Mourinho said after the Swansea game.

These words suggest that Mourinho is not satisfied by his Manchester United players, and he might be ready to spend big yet again in January.  United have been linked with many players since the summer transfer window closed in September. With the unwanted players set to depart, Mourinho will be looking to add reinforcements to get his side firing again in the race for the Premier League title.

So who should the 20-time Premier league Champions sign in the January transfer window to boost their squad? I have a look at who Jose Mourinho might be targeting.
