Jose Mourinho wants to sell 2 Manchester United players to boost January transfer plans

Jose Mourinho needs to guide Manchester United to a top-four finish to survive the sack at the end of the season, according to The Sun. Mourinho’s side are now 12 points behind rivals and Premier League leaders Manchester City after derby defeat(3-1). United chiefs want Tottenham Mauricio Pochettino to replace the Portuguese. However, the boss is looking forward to the January transfer window and want to offload Marcos Rojo and Eric Bailly to bring in a new defender at Manchester United, The Telegraph reports. Eric Bailly has not featured for the Red Devils since the 3-2 victory against Newcastle a month ago. Rogo has not kicked a ball for the first team and is out in the cold at Old Trafford. United have conceded 21 goals in just 12 Premier League games so far this season, with only Burnley, Cardiff, Huddersfield and Fulham shipping more.
