The Glazer family, who own Manchester United, are reportedly putting measures in place ahead of Ryan Giggs’ appointment as the club’s next manager, with Jose Mourinho poised to miss out on the post.
That’s according to Adriano Boin of Marca, who stated if Louis van Gaal does leave his post this summer, they “are keen to replace him with a figure that won't overshadow the club,” and as such, they will turn to the Dutchman’s current assistant manager instead of the controversial Portuguese coach.
“As a result, the Glazer family have already taken steps towards promoting Giggs from his current post as assistant manager, leaving Mourinho's future in doubt,” continues Boin, noting the options for Mourinho are now likely to be limited to Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain.
