Man Utd to make move for Carlos Soler in January

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho wants to sign Valencia midfielder Carlos Soler in the January transfer window. The player is reportedly United's top target and it is understood United will match the 45 million euro minimum fee release clause to sign the Spain under-21 star.

With Paul Pogba out of action for the time being, Man Utd manager Mourinho wants to bring in midfield reinforcements in the January transfer window. Mourinho, bitter after a shock 2-1 defeat to Huddersfield Town in the Premier League last weekend, will open his cheque book to bring in some of Europe's best players in January and intends to start with a move for Soler. 

The 20-year-old, who has played over 30 times for Valencia's first team since stepping up from the reserve team squad, has been impressive since he forced his way into the club's plans. He has recently enjoyed his first taste of under-21 football.

According to reports from Spain, United will beat Real Madrid to snap up Soler in January.
