Jose Mourinho will meet Manchester United officials on Tuesday for talks about becoming Louis van Gaal’s successor as manager. Van Gaal, 64, was sacked on Monday, two days after winning the FA Cup, because of the quality of his side’s football.
United finished fifth in the Premier League this season and exited the Champions League at the group stage.
Mourinho, 53, one of the game’s most successful coaches, has been available since Chelsea sacked him in December.
He won three league titles in two spells at Stamford Bridge, and guided Porto and Inter to Champions League victories in 2004 and 2010 respectively.
