SURPRISING: He shines with Argentina and may be in the sights of Mourinho
Rodrigo de Paul became one of the fan favourites for the Lionel Scaloni Argentina team and now he could be on the move

A surprise move to Serie A side Udinese got him back on his feet, as De Paul became one of the best performers for the Italian side, and showed enough promise to earn a place with Lionel Scaloni's Argentina national team and he quickly became one of the fan favourites.
