Metro clams that the Citizens are set to sanction his £57m release clause and the deal could be finalized before the weekend.
However, United legend Neville wants Mourinho to hijacked the deal from City and lure the centre-back to Old Trafford.
The former Valencia manager sees the 23-year old centre-back as a top talent that would strengthen United team.
Jose Mourinho has a knack for hijacking deal from rival clubs as evidenced by hijacking Chelsea’s move for Romelu Lukaku and more recently Alexis Sanchez’s move to Ethihad stadium.
However, it’s yet to be seen if United will make a move for the talented defender.
United have the likes of Phil Jones, Chris Smalling, Marcos Rojo, Eric Bailly, Victor Lindelof and Daley Blind on their books.
