The Manchester United manager says he has not reached out to the Portuguese coach despite their previous working relationship and neither does he expect to receive a call
Louis van Gaal says he has had no contact with Jose Mourinho amid rumors the Portuguese coach could be set to replace him at Manchester United.
United suffered a 2-1 defeat against relegation-threatened Sunderland on Saturday and missed the opportunity to close the gap on top-four clubs Manchester City, Tottenham, Arsenal and Leicester City, all of whom play on Sunday.
The Red Devils' fading hopes of securing Champions League football have led to suggestions the club hierarchy has entered talks with Mourinho but Van Gaal said he would not reach out to the man who worked under him at Barcelona.
