da bet nacional: Tottenham Hotspur left-back Danny Rose impressed in England’s 2-0 win against Costa Rica at Elland Road last week, and his performance didn’t go unnoticed by Manchester United fans on Twitter who urged their club to sign the defender, rated at £27m by Transfermarkt.
da bet7k: The Red Devils have been heavily linked with the 27-year-old in the past, but recent reports suggest that Jose Mourinho, who is reportedly targeting a 6ft 5in beast who would be the centre-back partner Eric Bailly has been crying out for, is ready to turn his back on the Three Lions star and keep the faith with Ashley Young and Luke Shaw, with new right-back Diogo Dalot also able to feature there.
Rose found it difficult to break back into the Spurs starting XI under Mauricio Pochettino following an injury at the beginning of the 2017/18 campaign, with Ben Davies establishing himself as the first-choice left-back/left wing-back.
Despite his lack of games he got the call from Gareth Southgate for the tournament in Russia this summer, and it remains to be seen whether he could still impress Mourinho enough to convince him to bring him to Old Trafford.
We asked Man United supporters to vote on our poll to see whether they thought that Rose would be an upgrade on Young at left-back, and a huge 83% said that he would be.
Those fans obviously disagree with Mourinho’s reported thoughts that he doesn’t need a new player in that position, and it would be no surprise if the Portuguese boss changed his mind before the window slams shut on August 9.
