„Manchester United“ is ready to offer a huge salary to Jose Mourinho. It is reported that during the whole contract, the Portuguese would earn up to 60 million pounds sterling.
The former „Chelsea“ strategist will be offered a three-year contract, and the record-breaking sum of money will allow the Portuguese to become the highest-paid coach of all time. The annual amount of 20 million pounds sterling will exceed Pep Guardiola's earnings at „Manchester City“ club and will be twice as much as what Louis van Gaal currently earns. It is worth noting that J. Mourinho would also receive additional bonuses for certain titles and trophies won.
J. Mourinho was left without a job in December, when „Chelsea“ started their season very poorly and the team completely fell apart. Talks about „United“ and the possible cooperation with the Portuguese began right after J. Mourinho's dismissal, as the „Red Devils“ did not win a single game in December and showed poor form, so rumors about L. van Gaal's dismissal and J. Mourinho's arrival gained significant momentum. Nevertheless, the Dutchman remains in his position to this day. However, there are reports that L. van Gaal has come to terms with the fact that he will be relieved of his duties at the end of the season.
J. Mourinho himself recently said in an interview with „BT“ journalists that he doesn't exactly know where his fate will take him, but he confirmed that he will return to the coaching position in July.
„Life is beautiful, life is beautiful. Do I miss football? Yes, I miss it. But I am looking forward to the future with enthusiasm, I want football to return to my neighborhood. Time flies fast and July will come very soon.“
„Of course, I will have a new team in the summer. I don't know where. Since I left „Chelsea“, I have been fortunate to have not just offers, but very good options. However, I have decided to wait a bit longer. Everything will become clear in July, around mid-July.“
