Jose Mourinho is set to spend big to improve his Manchester United side if the bookies are to be believed, as they have slashed odds on 'the Special One' signing his Portuguese compatriot Goncalo Guedes over the coming days.
The versatile 20-year-old who has been dubbed 'the new Cristiano Ronaldo' can play in a number of forward positions and has been in unbelievable form this season, leading to attention from some of Europe's top clubs.
When you consider that he has scored seven goals and assisted another seven in all competitions at such a young age, it's easy to see why.

Manchester United are thought to be keen on securing his signature before anyone else can, as they look to replace the hole in their squad left by the previous 'new Cristiano Ronaldo', Memphis Depay.
Guedes was omitted from the Benfica squad who faced Tondela yesterday and, with no other explanation for his absence, many onlookers believe he is as good as gone.
The bookies concur with that, with Ladbrokes pricing the 20-time English champions at 1/3 to sign him before the transfer window closes.
