The Special One is back!

Jose Mourinho is the new manager of Manchester United! The negotiations between the two sides have successfully completed yesterday and the 53-year-old Portuguese coach has signed his contract in a hotel in central London, “Sky Sports” said.

About 20 minutes after the meeting between Mourinho and the executive director of Manchester United Ed Woodward in the London hotel, the Portuguese manager was filmed to come home with papers and a bottle of wine in his hand. It has double cause for celebration because the date of 26th May 2016 marks 12 years since his first Champions League title with Porto.

Shortly afterwards Jose Mourinho was greeted by the former captain of the Red Devils Rio Ferdinand for Mourinho’s appointment as the manager of the biggest football club in the world.
“I can only say to Man United fans – they already have a real winner in all aspects. His CV speaks for itself. I can assure you that after his failure with Chelsea in the last year, Jose will be as a wounded animal,” Rio Ferdinand wrote on Facebook.

The official confirmation from the club came today, when Jose Mourinho posed with United’s kit in front of the journalists.

Jose Mourinho and Manchester United officially started negotiations after the dismissal of Louis van Gaal, who walked away from “Old Trafford” after two years at the club.

On Wednesday, “Sky Sports” announced that both parties have their contracts. Subsequently, it was announced that the signing of the contract was delayed because of several potential conflicts related to the image rights of the coach. However, now everything is done and Man United sign Mourinho!

“Becoming the manager of Manchester United is a special honour in this game. This is a club, which is known and revered throughout the world. It has a mystique and romance with which no other club can boast. I’ve always had an affinity for “Old Trafford”. This stadium has hosted some very important memories in my career so far. Between me and the United fans have always been understanding and I enjoyed this. I am looking forward to be their manager and I am sure I will enjoy their excellent support in the coming years,” Jose Mourinho said at the official website of the Reds Devils.

In my opinion, Chelsea made their biggest mistake when they sacked the Special One. Because everyone has his own failures. And you must be patient with people, who have proven their abilities and have shown what they can do in football.
