BREAKING: MOURINHO’S SACK IS ‘IMMINENT’ AT MANCHESTER UNITED

Manchester United are reportedly set to announce the sacking of manager Jose Mourinho imminently and replace him with Zinedine Zidane.

According to caughtoffside.com, sources in Spain have made the bold claim that star player Paul Pogba has been told by the club that he should stay put as they’re set to finalise the departure of Mourinho.

It’s been an open secret for some time that the pair do not get on, with Pogba struggling to find his best form under the Portuguese tactician.

With the team’s form dipping this season there has been plenty of speculation about Zidane coming in to pick up the pieces, and it looks like fans don’t have too long to wait now.

Don Balon suggest Mourinho’s days are numbered, with United facing difficult fixtures against Chelsea and Juventus next that may decide his fate.
