Dries Mertens (Napoli)

One player who looks Old Trafford-bound is Napoli forward Dries Mertens, according to Sport Witness.

Mertens, 31, has scored 46 goals over the last two seasons in that new role and his experience and work rate make him the dream Mourinho striker.

With the Portuguese tactician trying Alexis Sanchez and Jesse Lingard up front together against West Ham, could this perhaps be a hint of a two-striker system for next season, but with Mertens and Lukaku leading the line instead?
