Mourinho has signed three new faces so far this summer with Victor Lindelof, Nemanja Matic and Romelu Lukaku all arriving but the Portuguese coach has made no secret of his desire for further reinforcements.
/>Another attacker is on the agenda and the M.E.N. claim that contrary to some reports, United haven’t ended their interest in Perisic and are ready to make another attempt to sign the Croatian international.
United have been strongly linked with Perisic this summer but struggled to agree a deal with Inter after refusing to meet the Serie A giants £48m asking price [via the Independent] or include Anthony Martial in any deal.
However, it looks as though Mourinho is ready to try again for the 28-year-old after admitting defeat with his ambitious move to try and lure Gareth Bale away from Real Madrid this summer.
It remains to be seen whether United will be able to agree terms with Inter this time but Perisic would be an excellent signing as he’s a hard working winger who is also a real threat in the final third as he chipped in with 11 goals and 12 assists last season.

M.E.N. claim Mourinho is also hoping to strengthen the full-back department with left-back a particular area of concern as Luke Shaw and Ashley Young continue to recover from long-term injuries.
The newspaper says Mourinho is looking for a player who can also be deployed in the wing-back role if needed but although Danny Rose is a target, any deal for the Tottenham star is more likely to happen next summer.
