Jose Mourinho has confided in close friends
that it is a “done deal” that he will take over
at Manchester United in the summer.
Sportsmail revealed at the weekend that the
Portuguese was on the verge of agreeing
terms to replace Louis van Gaal.
Mourinho has been out of work since he
was sacked by Chelsea in December but it
is widely known he would relish the chance
to take over at United.
Now he has told associates that the move to
Old Trafford is done and he is set to take
over at the end of the season.
It will bring to an end Van Gaal’s troubled
two-year reign.
The Dutchman will still have a year
remaining on his United contract, but he has
not impressed after being backed to the
tune of hundreds of millions of pounds in the
transfer market yet failing to win any
silverware.
It has seen him come under increasing
pressure from fans.
Van Gaal has been publicly riled in press
conferences on several occasions when
asked about his future at the club, but
Mourinho is certain the job is his.
