Football Whispers have developed a unique algorithm to take all of the transfer rumours from across the globe and calculate the likelihood of them happening.
They track transfer stories and give them a score out of 5.0, with the hottest Whispers closest to 5.0.
Here are the top three:
1. Henrikh Mkhitaryan (Borussia Dortmund) - 4.7
Talk continues over Mkhitaryan's proposed move from Dortmund to United.
The Armenia midfielder, 27, has just one year left on his contract at the Bundesliga club and with Mourinho reportedly frustrated at a lack of transfer activity at Old Trafford, this transfer could be on the cards soon rather than later.
Dortmund have reportedly identified former Chelsea midfielder Andre Schurrle as his replacement, boosting United's chances of signing Mkhitaryan.
2. James Rodriguez (Real Madrid) - 4.5
Colombian star Rodriguez has been linked with a move away from the Bernabeu after struggling to establish himself at the Bernabeu under Zinedine Zidane.
United have been quoted a fee in the region of £50m for the attacking midfielder, who has reportedly been looking for a house in the same area near Manchester where Old Trafford boss Mourinho lives.
One other small detail: Rodriguez and Mourinho share the same super-agent, one Jorge Mendes.
3. Paul Pogba (Juventus) 4.1
Whispers linking the Juventus and France midfielder with a return to Old Trafford have intensified after reports Mourinho was eager to land a summer signing and United were willing to match any offer Real Madrid could make.
The mercurial 23-year-old was allowed to leave United for Italy back in 2011 and would attract a hefty fee for Juventus if they decided to cash in.
