Former Chelsea boss sold Mata to United in January 2014, because he believe that the playmaker had not the enough pace to be in the squad.

Also, the report suggested that Blind does not have the physical appearance to be a part of the defence under the Portuguese boss.

It is believed that the two superstars will be allowed to leave the club as soon as Mourinho acquires the services of direct replacements.
