Jose Mourinho led Manchester United 2016 to 2019 but the Portuguese coach has now revealed that he had signed up to lead the Premier League giants much earlier than that, at a crucial stage of the club’s history.
Mourinho was the third manager to lead United after their legendary manager Alex Ferguson retired in 2013.
The former has now said that he had initially “signed with” United to take over right after Ferguson’s departure.
“I go to Chelsea in 2013 but in that period there is something nobody knows,” the Portuguese said in a documentary, which is titled Mourinho, on Netflix.
When I left Real Madrid, I signed with Manchester United to go to Manchester United after Sir Alex.”
