Jose set for United job?
MANCHESTER United manager Louis van Gaal left the squad’s hotel yesterday saying “it’s over” amid reports he was about to be replaced by Jose Mourinho.
Dutch boss van Gaal was greeted by waiting Red Devils fans following United’s FA Cup 2-1 final win over Crystal Palace at Wembley on Saturday.
When asked by a Sky Sports reporter if he had time to talk, van Gaal replied: “It’s over.”
Whether that meant he had been sacked by United was not immediately clear.
But the 64-year-old former Netherlands manager’s brief remark will fuel speculation he is on his way out of Old Trafford.
No sooner had United lifted the FA Cup then reports in the British media emerged that former Chelsea boss Mourinho would be replacing one-time mentor van Gaal. For all that they ended this season with a trophy, United didn’t make a sustained challenge for the Premier League title.
