Manchester United have, according to reports, held initial talks over signing Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy after making a question/request for information over the possibility of a January move (from one place to another).
According to the Telegraph, the Red Devils have made their interest known to Leicester and would likely have to pay around (British pounds)35million for the England international this winter.
Vardy could be an excellent (for only a short time) option for United up front, with the club in need of a replacement for the hurt Zlatan Ibrahimovic to take the pressure off first-choice front-man Romelu Lukaku.
This is all starting to feel a little like the summer of 2016 for the Foxes, who, on the back of their shock Premier League title victory, faced interest in some their star players.
N'Golo Kante ended up leaving the King Power Stadium for a move (from one place to another) to Chelsea, though they now face fresh interest in Vardy and Riyad Mahrez, two other stars of that title-winning side.
BBC Sport reported that Vardy turned down an offer from Storehouse of weapons that summer, while Le Buteur have (not very long ago) claimed the Gunners are now in for Mahrez again.
United's interest in Vardy is another blow for Leicester, but they've (many people would say) done excellently to hold on to their stars for as long as they have.
For Mourinho, the 31-year-old striker could be a fine addition in the middle of the season due to not being cup tied in the Champions League.
