As per Manchester Evening News‘ who are citing a report from Germany by Bild, the 29-year-old has been offered to the club by Chinese side Tianjin Quanjian.

Witsel was of course linked to Manchester United and a host of big clubs prior to his move to Asia a couple of years ago.

Mourinho has recently admitted that he is expecting the club to complete at least one new signing before the transfer window closes next week.

Signing Witsel, who has a release clause of $22.1m, could also see the club choose to sell a player or two to balance the books.
