JOSE MOURINHO Signs pre-contract deals with man-u

Jose Mourinho has reportedly signed a pre-contract agreement
with Manchester United to take over as the new coach of the club
this summer. The Portuguese coach has been linked with
Manchester United ever since he was sacked by former club
Chelsea in December, but has now signed a pre- contract
agreement with Manchester United according to an exclusive
report by top Spanish newspaper El País.
According to the report Mourinho will be paid up to £15m if by
June 1, 2016 the club refuses to employ him.
“If United do not sign the final contract [with Mourinho]
before 1 May, they must pay £5m; if by 1 June he’s still
not signed, they shall pay another £10m. May is the key,
because it’s the month in which the vast majority of the
signings of players are closed and the plans formed.” Read
the report.
El País claim that the clause has been included because senior
figures at Old Trafford, including Sir Alex Ferguson and Sir Bobby
Charlton, are not entirely convinced that Mourinho is the right man
to succeed Louis van Gaal.
Senior officials at Manchester United like Ed Woodward have
refused to deny the report.
