Manchester United target Justin Kluivert reveals what Jose Mourinho told him after Europa League final
AJAX wonderkid Justin Kluivert has spilled the beans on what Jose Mourinho told him after the Europa League final.
Mourinho was spotted talking to the teenager after Manchester United's 2-0 victory in Stockholm last May.
There were suggestions that Mourinho was taking the chance to court the 18-year-old over a possible future transfer.
But nothing like it.
For now Kluivert, son of Dutch hero Patrick, has revealed what the United manager said:
He told AD : "He just liked to see me.
"Mourinho knows me from the time that I was a little boy and my father played at Barcelona when Mourinho worked there as an assistant trainer."
Kluivert might not fit the immediate needs of United, but he is certainly an exciting talent.

And with the Red Devils said to be keen on signing a winger this month it was obvious this link between he and Mourinho would be highlighted.
As it turns out both Lucas Moura of PSG and Bordeaux winger Malcom are said to be ahead of Kluivert on United's transfer radar.

According to , United will go 25-year-old Moura, who has admitted to wanting a move to Old Trafford.
The Brazilian wideman was a target for Sir Alex Ferguson in 2012 and is available as PSG try to meet Financial Fair Play guidelines.
They will sell for around £25million but United may prefer to take Moura on loan.
