Jose Mourinho once had Zlatan Ibrahimovic to help him out at Manchester United. Nowadays, his attention has reportedly switched to another Swedish veteran, Andreas Granqvist, who is rumoured to be a target ahead of the January transfer window.
"I am not closing any doors, and flattered to even be linked with such a big team," the 33-year-old defender told Expressen from Helsingborg where he plays in the second division.
Second division? Yes, you have read that right. Back in January, Granqvist agreed to return to his first club Helsingborg (an important and traditional club from the south of Sweden) in July and, despite his performances at the World Cup opening many doors for him this summer, he never even considered breaking his word.
