Mourinho signs pre-contract agreement with Manchester United

Jose Mourinho has signed a pre-contract agreement to take over as Manchester United coach this summer.

According to a report in El Pais, the Portuguese who was sacked as Chelsea manager in December, is set to return to management in the Premier League.

Mourinho in an interview with BT last week, revealed he has already decided to join a new club in July and was eager to clear up a few “lies” about his future.

El Pais claims the 53-year-old will be paid £15 million, if he is not appointed before June 1 according to a source from his agent Jorge Mendes’ company Gestifute.

A clause reportedly inserted in his agreement, will see United pay Mourinho £5m if they do not appoint him before May 1 and a further £10m if they don’t before June 1.
