Manchester United could make a move for Stoke City attacker, Xherdan Shaqiri, according to the Sun.

Jose Mourinho has been admirer of the Swiss international and has reportedly told friends recently that he likes the player.

Shaqiri can play on both wings and did very well for Switzerland at the ongoing World Cup in Russia.

With Stoke relegated from the Premier League after ten years at the top flight, it will be very easy for United to lure Shaqiri back to the League.

The £12m-rated player has also been linked with linked Liverpool and Everton.

The 26-year-old could be what Manchester United need as they lack quality wingers and with Anthony Martial wanting out of the club.

Since the days of Ryan Giggs and Cristiano Ronaldo at Old Trafford, United have lacked quality and consistent wingers that can influence games on a regular basis.

The likes of Luis Nani and Memphis Depay tried but failed to be consistent. Antonio Valencia and Ashley young were good in their early days, but have been converted to defenders over time.
