Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho is reportedly eyeing another raid on former club Chelsea at the end of the season. The Portuguese tactician is plotting a move for Marcos Alonso, who has been one of the Blues' standout performers under Antonio Conte.
According to Don Balon, Mourinho is keen to find a long-term replacement for Ashley Young, and Alonso has been earmarked as the prime target. It is added that the Mancunian giants could be prepared to pay as much as £70m in order to tempt the Blues into a summer deal.
Despite the speculation, it would come as a surprise, if the Blues consider an offer from the Red Devils, given the success which Nemanja Matic has found since swapping between the clubs.
Alonso has also associated with a potential return to Real Madrid previously, and the Blues' hierarchy may have their task cut out to fend off interest from the European champions.
