Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho reportedly thinks executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward deliberately refused to meet Inter Milan's £48 million valuation of Ivan Perisic because the player wasn't a big enough name for the fee.
Jack Otway of the Daily Express reported the Red Devils coach is suspicious of the circumstances that lead to United missing out on the attacker's signature, with Woodward reportedly submitting an offer of £3 million under the asking price in 2017.
Perisic went on to become one of the stars of the 2018 FIFA World Cup, as Croatia were defeated in the final by France.
