Mourinho and Talisca do shared the same agent, Jorge Mendes however, United would have to apply for the Home Office to great the midfielder a work permit under the Football Association’s ‘exceptional talent’ guidelines – as they did when Gabriel joined Arsenal from Villarreal.
The Brazilian ace has a £21 million release clause option which can be activated over the summer.
Besiktas did however, strike a two year loan deal with Talisca.
The 23-year-old will star at the Besiktas if his release clause is not activated over the transfer window.
