Former Chelsea boss who has
signed a pre-contract to become the
next manager of Manchester
United, Jose Mourinho has come to
agreement with the club’s current
manager, Louis Van Gaal over the
enormity of responsibilities
involved with the position.

According to Daily Star UK, quoting
reports in Daily Telegraph UK on
Tuesday, Mourinho has admitted
that the job of managing
Manchester United is more than
that of one man as earlier noted by
Van Gaal and is keen to bring
Atletico Madrid sporting director,
Andrea Berta to Old Trafford if he
(Mourinho) replaces the Dutchman
as manager at the end of the
season.

The Daily Telegraph reports that
Mourinho is expected to take over
from Van Gaal in the summer
despite no official announcement
being made and that the Special
One is very keen on the Italian
joining him at Old Trafford to take
charge of transfer dealings.

The former Chelsea manager is
keen for United to change their
structure and bring in Berta as a
director of football.

That is one thing Van Gaal agrees
with as he believes having one
person in charge from top to
bottom at Old Trafford is
impossible.

The Dutchman has struggled with
recruitment in his two seasons at
the club with Angel di Maria,
Radamel Falcao and Memphis
proving to be huge flops.

Mourinho feels Berta – who has a
good relationship with his agent
Jorge Mendes – would be the right
man to assist with United’s
transfers.

United is currently sixth in the
Premier League after beating arch-
rivals Manchester City 1-0 on
Sunday.

They are now just one point behind
Manuel Pellegrini’s men and level
with West Ham as they fight for the
final Champions League qualifying
spot.
