Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho: 'We will definitely sign one more player'

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho says that the club will sign one more player this summer, but refuses to confirm if it will be Paul Pogba.

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has insisted that the club will recruit one more player before the end of the transfer window, but refused to confirm if the new arrival will be Juventus star Paul Pogba.

The France international has been heavily linked with the Red Devils all summer, with some reports claiming that United are willing to pay upwards of £100m for the 23-year-old's signature.

The midfielder is currently on holiday in the United States, and according to Sky Sports News, will fly to England in the coming days to finalise a move to United.

After Wayne Rooney's testimonial at Old Trafford last night, Mourinho said that he wants to secure his final signing before the start of the Premier League season next weekend.

"We are going to sign one more player, that's for sure," the 53-year-old told reporters. "I don't want to speak about Paul Pogba because he is a Juventus player and I don't like other managers speaking about my players. I don't speak about their players.

"But the reality is we are going to sign one more player. The market closes on August 31, so we have plenty of time to do that, but obviously I would like to do it before the Premier League season starts."

Pogba spent three years in United's youth ranks before leaving on a free transfer to Juventus in 2012.
