Former Chelsea and Real Madrid manager Jose Mourinho has been confirmed as the new boss at Manchester United as per reports in the English media.

Reports suggests Mourinho has concluded his talks with United executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward and agreed a deal to take charge at Old Trafford.

Mourinho, who has been out of work since being sacked by Chelsea in December, replaces Louis van Gaal, who was himself dismissed by United two days after they won the FA Cup at Wembley.
