Reports: Jose Mourinho Wants Star To Return To Old Trafford

Manchester united boss is set to shorten Andreas Pereira's stay in La Liga. 

The Brazilian has been out on loan at Valencia this season, much to the dislike of Mourinho, who would rather have him as a squad option to call on at United, especially with injuries to established stars such as Paul Pogba, Marouane Fellaini and Michael Carrick.

"It was a personal decision that I don't agree with, a decision I don't honestly think is the best choice for him, a decision that disappoints me," Mourinho said a few months ago, as quoted by The Sun.

"He has the potential to be fighting for a position, for opportunities and to be a Manchester United player.

"His decision can be considered as a young player who wants to play every weekend, but also a young player that is not ready to fight for something challenging, and it's difficult to play in Manchester United's midfield."
