Mourinho to swap Mata for Joao Mario

Spanish international winger Juan Mata is once again being linked with a Manchester United departure.

The 29-year-old has endured a tumultuous relationship with Jose Mourinho at Chelsea and has found himself being pushed in an out of the Manchester United side over the past twelve months.

The Spaniard made 10 Premier League appearances this season and is said to be looking for a way out of the club in an effort to make a late push towards the Spain national team at the World Cup in Russia.

Mourinho will not stand in his way and is even willing to help out by trying to work out a deal with his former club Inter Milan, according to Corriere dello Sport. 

The Portuguese tactician is said to be looking to offer Mata in a swap deal for Joao Mario, who is not enjoying the best of relationships with Inter Milan head coach Luciano Spalletti.
