Manchester United and Mourinho 'agree £60m deal'

Jose Mourinho will reportedly become the highest-paid manager in history if he takes over at Manchester United in the summer.

The Sun claims Mourinho will earn £60million over a three-year contract, which would put him on a bigger wage than all of United's players.

The story goes on to mention there remains support for Ryan Giggs in the Old Trafford board room but Mourinho has always been top of the list of candidates to replace Louis van Gaal .

As M.E.N. Sport has detailed extensively in recent months, United have been in regular dialogue with Mourinho, who reached a gentleman's agreement with the club in February and agreed a deal earlier this month.

Renato Sanches, who shares the same agent as Mourinho, could cost United £46m.
