Jose Mourinho entered his second season as Manchester United manager. The Portuguese will try hard to win the Premier League title this season after failing the previous season.

The Reds Devil started the 2017/18 season pretty well after winning three consecutive wins. In addition new players like Romelu Lukaku, Nemanja Matic and Victor Lindelof play as hope.

Mourinho is known to be very reliable in bringing good players in the club he handled. Here are some of the best transfer of Jose Mourinho we summarize from the teams he handled.

5 Luka Modric

Mourinho recruited Luka Modric in 2012 at a cost of around 30 million pounds for Real Madrid. In his first season in the Spanish capital, the Croatian man made the most assists in the team.

During his playing for Madrid, Modric won the league title, Copa del Rey, three Champions League and was voted best midfielder of La Liga twice.

4 Lucio

One of the Brazilian veteran players, Lucio, was successfully transferred by Mourinho in his final season at Inter Milan in 2009. Lucio's price is under 6 million pounds - a good purchase even though Lucio was 31 years old.

Lucio played an important role in that season by helping Inter reach a historic treble that ended the 45-year wait as European Champion, as well as a second Champions League title for Mourinho.

3 Mesut Ozil

When Mourinho became manager of Real Madrid in 2010 he faced the tough task of trying to break the dominance of Barcelona under Josep Guardiola. One of Mourinho's purchases in Madrid is Mesut Ozil, who shines with Germany at the World Cup, for 15 million pounds.

In his first season, Real Madrid won the Copa Del Rey, but they narrowly lost in the league from Barcelona. The following year, Ozil played an important role in the Mourinho scheme. Ozil scored four goals and 17 assists as Madrid broke a 100-point record to reclaim La Liga title from their toughest rivals, el Barca.

2 Didier Drogba

Drogba became one of the best strikers in the Premier League recruited by Chelsea for 24 million pounds in 2004.

Despite a difficult start at Stamford Bridge, in his third season at Chelsea he began to become a legend at the London club.

Scoring 33 goals in all competitions and winning gold shoes in the season, Drogba scored the only goal of the FA Cup final against Manchester United in 2007.

Drogba also scored in the final of the 2012 Champions League and has become an example for Mourinho's favorite striker. Maybe Lukaku at Manchester United will be the next striker.

1 Paulo Ferreira

Paulo Ferreira was one of Mourinho's first players while in Porto. Ferreira bought for 1.7 million pounds in 2002. Jose transformed the Portuguese youngster from the right midfielder to right-back.

Ferreira then won two successive league titles in Porto, UEFA Cup and Champions League titles. For two years at Porto he has only missed two league games.

Jose was very proud of this transfer so he recruited him again when appointed manager of Chelsea in 2004. This time at a cost of 17 million pounds and Ferreira returned to look as impressive as in Porto.

All these 5 are awesome transfers, I can't believe however that you haven't mentioned Ricardo Carvalho, I was scrolling down excited to get to your opinion of him.. he must have been best transfer Mourinho ever did and got him both at Chelsea and Real Madrid...

Jose's transformation of Drogba and Sneijder are iconic for me :)

This is informative and fun... thanks for sharing!

I think that the best transfer is still the transfer of Drogba.

thanks News Information @steemsports

@steemsports : Thanks for sharing and GGMU! :-)

El Manchester United es uno de mis equipos favoritos

The purchase of Drogba was really phenomenal and value for money.
Jose Mourinho always buys people who are suited for the particular role he needs.

I am an ardent Manchester United fan.
We all know Mourinho wins the a league title in his second season and also if he leads the table he never gets of it!

So all United fans,we need to be confident,this is our season.

I really do think he is the best striker of the modern era. Pace, strength, both feet, skill, determination!
