BREAKING NEWS: coming from Fabrizio Romano, “I honestly want a return to man united I want to see united succeed, in my time in charge the environment was toxic for me to work in but with the new faces in the club I think I can work effectively”. According to reports, Jose Mourinho is reportedly interested in returning to Manchester United amid Erik ten Hag’s struggles at Old Trafford. Mourinho wants to return to Man Utd, five-and-a-half years after he was sacked by the club.

Jose Mourinho is reportedly eyeing a return to Manchester United, as Erik ten Hag struggles at Old Trafford. The former Red Devils manager, who has been without a job since his departure from AS Roma in January, has expressed interest in taking over at Bayern Munich and Chelsea. However, his desire to manage United again has become apparent, with sources stating that he has conveyed to close associates his willingness to return, stating he would “walk to Manchester” for a second stint.

Ten Hag’s tenure at United is under scrutiny following a dismal 4-0 loss to Crystal Palace, adding to the uncertainty surrounding his position. The club’s current eighth-place standing in the Premier League and the possibility of their lowest finish since 1990, coupled with 18 losses in all competitions this season, have heightened the pressure on the Dutchman.

Reflecting on his previous tenure at United, Mourinho criticized the club’s transfer strategy, highlighting a lack of support and trust from the hierarchy. While acknowledging a good personal relationship with former executive Ed Woodward, Mourinho expressed disappointment with the professional aspect, indicating a disparity in background and support compared to Ten Hag’s situation. Mourinho lamented the presence of certain players who did not fit his vision for the club, yet expressed a desire for United’s success despite his past grievances.
