English papers claim Jose Mourinho has asked Manchester United to shell out €87m for Napoli hitman Gonzalo Higuain.
The Argentine striker has scored an extraordinary 30 goals in 31 Serie A games this season.
According to the Sunday People, Mourinho not only revealed to friends that he is set for the Manchester United bench – more or less an open secret for months now – but that he’s also requested Higuain.
Napoli made it very clear they will only part with Pipita if someone matches his €87m buy-out clause.

This report suggests Manchester United are indeed prepared to pay the necessary £70m to get Higuain.
However, the player will also have a say in the matter and Napoli do look set for Champions League football, whereas Manchester United are struggling to qualify for the second year running.
