The Red Devils have been linked with an eye-watering £150million move for the powerful Napoli striker.
The Nigerian scored a brilliant goal in a 2-1 Serie A win against Mourinho's Roma yesterday.
Afterwards, ex-United boss Mourinho said: "If Victor changes then, OK, I’d buy him if I was at a club with a lot of money.
"However, if he does go to England one day, he needs to change, because in Italy they put up with this sort of behaviour.
"But in the Premier League, they’d come down hard on him."
Garnacho to start against Forest?
With a 3-0 lead from the first-leg, it'll be interesting to see who Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag picks for the visit of Nottingham Forest in their Carabao Cup semi on Wednesday.
One red-hot Red Devils prospect who might get the nod is exciting 18-year-old winger Alejandro Garnacho after he came off the bench in last week's win at the City Ground.
Maguire to follow Smalling path?
If Inter Milan do sign Manchester United's Harry Maguire he could do worse than follow a similar trail blazed by another former Red Devils defender.

Now it seems the two might yet square off in Serie A before the end of the season.

Inter Milan make Maguire enquiry
Inter Milan have enquired about the possibility of signing out-of-favour Manchester United captain Harry Maguire, according to the Daily Mail.
You would have to live in a cave by yourself to not know the England centre-half has been under pressure at Old Trafford for a while.
Now it seems Simone Inzaghi's Serie A heavyweights might give him an escape route.
Some background on teenager Biancheri
After news that Cardiff's Gabriele Biancheri is set to join Manchester United, the Mirror have taken a look at what it was about the 16-year-old that caught the eye.
The starlet is capped up to Wales Under-17 level and has been impressing for the Bluebirds' Under-21s this season.
Chelsea were also said to be interested in the young Welshman.
He has progressed through Cardiff's youth system and has had a breakthrough season with 17 goals in his first 11 matches.
That earned hum an Under-21s debut in December when he came on at half-time against Wolves for Isaak Davies.

Now the Red Devils might try and beat them to the punch for the Belgium star it seems.
CBS journalist Ben Jacobs, speaking to The Football Terrace, via The Boot Room, said: "We shouldn’t only be referring to a late Manchester United movement in terms of strikers.
"From what I hear it’s more creative-minded players that can either get box to box from attacking midfield, or in central areas, or are a little more versatile across the front areas.
"Therefore keep an eye on a player like Youri Tielemans, who will be available on a free transfer in the summer."
Elanga to fill Gordon void?
Everton want to sign Manchester United's Anthony Elanga as a replacement for Anthony Gordon, according to The Athletic.
After winger Gordon sealed a £45million switch to Newcastle, the Toffees think Sweden flyer Elanga, 20, can spear-head their Prem survival bid.
Rennes' starlet Kamaldeen Sulemana, 20, is another said to be on the Goodison Park radar.
Manchester United seal Biancheri deal

United second FA Cup favourites

Spurs at 11-2 are next up followed by the six other Prem teams still left in the competition.
United dark horses for Caicedo?
While Arsenal appear to be in the box seat to sign Moises Caicedo, the Manchester Evening News point out it would be no surprise if he ends up at Manchester United.
The Gunners have just seen a £70million bid rejected for the 21-year-old Brighton star.
But the Red Devils also need a midfielder after Christian Eriksen joined Donny van de Beek on the treatment table.
And the MEN have highlighted quotes from Caicedo in The Athletic last year in which he said he wanted to follow in fellow Ecuadorian Antonio Valencia’s footsteps in playing for United.
Caicedo said: “My dream is to play for Manchester United.
Antonio Valencia is an example to follow. With his strength and dedication, he was able to get to that level.
“That motivates me to keep working hard and do the right things.”
Do United need Eriksen cover?
They have been going well this season, but do Manchester United find themselves suddenly a bit short in midfield at the 11th hour of this Janaury transfer window?
A Red Devils' engine room led by red-hot Casemiro looks a match for anyone right now.
But the knock picked up by influential Dane Christian Eriksen in Saturday's FA Cup win over Reading will be a concern to boss Erik ten Hag.
And with less than 48 hours before that infamous window shuts (don't slam it please) the Dutchman may have to look for another recruit to help out in for a busy run-in.
