Mourinho arrival could pave the way for Welbeck return?

​JOSE MOURINHO’S first act as Manchester United boss could be to snap up Danny Welbeck, according to Ladbrokes.

The former Red Devils youngster was sold to Arsenal in 2014, but new boss Mourinho is believed to be a fan, meaning the odds of Welbeck returning home to Old Trafford have tumbled from 8/1 to 3/1.

Another reported target is keeper Kasper Schmeichel, and with David De Gea likely to exit, the Foxes stopper has dropped from 6/1 to 4/1 to follow in his father’s footsteps.

Both men could well link up with Zlatan Ibrahimovic at Old Trafford, with Ladbrokes suspending betting on the Swede’s move to Manchester on Monday.

And with a slew of new names set to arrive at the Theatre of Dreams this summer, it’s 11/10 that Jose tastes silverware in his first season while 13/2 says he leads United to Premier League glory in 2016-17.

Ladbrokes News’ Dave Burin said: “Expect to see an overhaul of the Old Trafford squad now Jose’s in town. The betting suggests there's a good chance Welbeck will return home to join Mourinho’s Man United revolution.”
