Mourinho’s agent denies United deal

 

Jorge Mendes has denied Jose Mourinho has already struck a deal to replace Louis van Gaal as Manchester United manager.

 

Mourinho was sacked by Chelsea last week and has been heavily linked with the United hot seat as pressure continues to pile on Van Gaal.

 

However, Mourinho’s agent insists that there has been no contact between the club and his client.

 

“There is nothing,” Mendes told Globoesporte when asked about reports suggesting Mourinho is on the verge of becoming United boss.

 

“We don’t know what will happen in the future, but now there is no agreement. There isn’t an official proposal either, that’s not true.”

Van Gaal reportedly has two games to save his job, but his dismissal could even come sooner if United slip to another damaging defeat to Stoke City on Boxing Day.

 

United have failed to win any of their last six competitive matches and dropped out of the top four after losing 2-1 at home to Norwich City on Saturday.
