TVC E, SPORT – Jose Mourinho’s agent has described claims that the Portuguese has written to Manchester United in a bid to become their next manager as ‘absolutely ridiculous and totally absurd’.
A report in the Independent on Sunday suggested that the former Chelsea boss had written a six-page letter outlining why he would be the right man to replace Louis van Gaal, as and when he leaves Old Trafford.
The report also claimed that Mourinho gave a ‘forensic analysis’ of United’s team this season and suggested areas which could be improved.
United have declined to respond to the reports, but in a statement on Sunday morning, Jorge Mendes categorically denied them.
