Manchester United to Reportedly Lose Anthony Martial as Part of Willian Transfer

Manchester United are reportedly set to make a last-minute bid to sign Willian from Chelsea this summer and are said to be ready to include Anthony Martial as part of any deal.

According to Steve Bates of the Sunday Mirror, the United boss Jose Mourinho is a big admirer of Willian, having worked together previously at Chelsea. It's suggested in the report that all is not well between the player and the Blues at Stamford Bridge either.

"The South American has already irritated new Blues boss Maurizio Sarri by arriving back late from his summer break, citing an expired passport as the reason," said Bates.
