The latest football transfer rumours as the January window begins to heat up. MOURINHO FACING RESISTANCE FROM BOARD OVER DANNY ROSE Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho wants to sign

Tottenham's Danny Rose, but is facing resistance from the board, according to the Daily Mail. Mourinho is said to see the 27-year-old as a good fit for the team, though the executives

are reportedly still putting their confidence in Luke Shaw, who has fallen out of favour with Mourinho after a bad run of form and injury issues. UNITED HOPEFUL OF LOAN DEAL FOR PSG WINGER

Manchester United, meanwhile, have their own eye on PSG winger Lucas Moura, the Sun says. Mourinho is hopeful of agreeing a loan deal for the 25-year-old, who is yet to make the starting XI

this season for the Ligue 1 leaders. However, it is thought PSG will only go ahead with any possible move if it leads to a permanent £40million deal next summer, the paper reports. SANDRO

COULD STAY IN ITALY UNTIL END OF SEASON Both Manchester United and Chelsea could be left disappointed in the January transfer window over their pursuit of Juventus' Alex Sandro, the

forward has long been a favourite of Sam Allardyce and it looks like a deal worth £25million could now be close to being completed, giving Allardyce a fresh option for his squad in the derby

match on Friday. KANE SET TO BECOME LEAGUE'S HIGHEST EARNER Spurs will make Harry Kane the Premier League's highest paid player with a £200,000-a-week contract, according to the

Daily Mail. WEST BROM HOPEFUL ON NEW EVANS DEAL With just 18 months left on his contract, West Brom are hopeful Jonny Evans will commit to a new deal to keep him at The Hawthorns, the Mirror

reports. But with interest mounting from Manchester City and Manchester United the club may have to be prepared to sell him. Reports suggest United are willing to offer £20million for the

defender, who spent 10 years at Old Trafford before moving to Albion in 2015. INTER KEEPING CLOSE EYE ON JUAN MATA CONTRACT SITUATION Inter Milan are keeping a close eye on Juan Mata and any

possible developments in his contract with Manchester United, according to the Mirror. The 29-year-old's contract is due to expire at the end of the season and, if United do not
