The Red Devils are now gearing up for the Portuguese coach’s first campaign at Old Trafford after his appointment as the club’s new boss on a three-year deal back in May.

It is understood signing Sanches would have all but confirmed the club’s intentions to replace van Gaal with Mourinho.
A member of the world players” union FifPro has claimed that Mourinho should face prison for “bullying’ the player recently, given he’s told the player he’s not needed and left him to train with the club’s reserves. “I think we have signed very well in the market”.
“The only thing that matters for me is what’s happening in my house, not my neighbours’s”.
Pogba, who is on the verge of a £100 million ($131 million) move to United, played with Ferdinand before moving to Juventus in 2012 after just three first-team games.
“[We have signed] A young defender that needs time to be a top one but who has top potential”.
He said “We are going to sign one more player for sure”. “I heard already two of my colleagues from other clubs speaking about us”.
There was a widespread expectation that Pogba would fly directly from his holiday in America to Manchester for a medial ahead of his return to United, but the comments rom Allegri have put a cloud on that idea. We try for balance. Mourinho said he meant to use Sunday’s game between his FA Cup holders and Premier League champions Leicester – the traditional curtain-raiser to the English season – to give a run out to as many members of his squad as possible.
United drew 0-0 with Everton in Wayne Rooney’s testimonial in midweek but preparations for the new campaign are due to step up against the Premier League champions. We bought a super striker.
“It’s only fair that Jose Mourinho should choose not to talk of Pogba as long as he’s a Juventus player”, said Allegri.
“I arrived late. I signed in May, we started talking a week before, but completely out of the process”.
