Man Utd: Woodward made 'huge error' with Solskjaer says Gray
Manchester United chief Woodward blocked Mourinho from signing Alderweireld a year ago, despite the Tottenham star being the Portuguese’s No 1 transfer target at the time.
The Belgium international was wanted by Mourinho, who had severe doubts over his crop of defenders.
Woodward rules the roost at Manchester United and told Mourinho that Alderweireld was too costly at £50million - especially when he was a year away from triggering a release clause that would slash his value.
And now Woodward may be about to make his move on the 30-year-old.
