Manchester United to Hand £300 Million to Jose Mourinho for New Players
The reports in relation to the next managerial appointment at Manchester United have been swirling around for a few months now and it seems that former Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho is going be in charge of the club from the start of the 2016-17 season. The club expect to announce the appointment in the coming weeks but the bigger news is that fact that Manchester United are also going to hand him a monstrous transfer budget in order to make sure that the club are able to build a squad that can compete on all fronts against the best teams in the world.
According to exclusive reports published in the British publication named The Daily Star, Jose Mourinho is going to be given a transfer kitty totalling £300 million and considering sort of budgets that the former Real Madrid manager has worked with at his previous, this is a budget that dwarfs them all. However, it needs to be mentioned that the club have not been frugal with their transfer spending as they were during the time of Sir Alex Ferguson and in fact, the present manager Louis van Gaal has spent in excess of £200 million in his two season at the club but the results have not been what the club expected.
The club are hell bent on bringing about an exciting new brand of football to Old Trafford after fans had voiced their displeasure at the club's style of play over the 2015-16 and the fact that United have returned their worst goals tally in a quarter of a century gives the boring angle some credence. Some of the players who have been linked with a move to Manchester United are Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who woulod move on a free transfer and Neymer Junior from Barcelona, In addition to that, Borussia Dortmund's central defender Mats Hummels, Paris Saint Germain's Edison Cavani and Juventus' midfield superstar Paul Pogba are also thought to be on the radar. In order to bring those sort of players to Old Trafford, United would need a hefty transfer budget.
