We already know that Louis van Gaal is openly talking about resignation for the first time, now we hear that his replacement could be sorted.

Following Manchester United's 2-0 defeat to Stoke City on Saturday, the assumption is that the Dutchman will either jump or be pushed in the coming days. Jose Mourinho has of course been hotly tipped to replace him. There have been growing murmurs in Iberia that the Portuguese would be arriving at Old Trafford sooner rather than later. Now a Spanish-based journalist is insistent that it has all been agreed. Pipi Estrada, of Spanish show El Chiringuito, says that Mourinho will be sitting on the bench at Manchester United next week. He claims that a deal has already been agreed. https://twitter.com/PipiEstrada1/status/680755996046811137?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw https://twitter.com/utdreport/status/680758045551538176?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw Whether it is based on hard fact or mere conjecture, it's looking more and more likely that it could end up being the case.
