According to the Daily Mail, coach Jose Mourinho wants to return to Man Utd to "complete unfinished work". The Portuguese coach led Man Utd from May 2016 to December 2018, winning 3 titles before being fired.
Daily Mail quoted a source close to Mourinho, saying that the 61-year-old coach believes that the management system of billionaire Jim Ratcliffe - who has just bought 25% of shares and taken over the management of Man Utd - will make a difference compared to the previous period at the Old Trafford team.
"His ambition is to return to Man Utd. He feels he still has unfinished business at Man Utd and has made it his mission to return," a friend of Mourinho's revealed to the Daily Mail.
Coach Mourinho has just been fired by AS Roma.
Mourinho led Man Utd in a total of 144 matches with a winning rate of 58.33%, the highest among the Red Devils' coaches after Alex Ferguson as of December 2018. He helped the Old Trafford team win the English League Cup and Europa League in the 2016/17 season, and become runner-up in the Premier League and FA Cup in 2017/18.
However, in his third season at Man Utd, coach Mourinho encountered trouble due to conflicts with some players and the board of directors. He was fired after losing to Liverpool at the end of 2018.
After leaving Old Trafford, the "Special One" worked at two other clubs, Tottenham and AS Roma. The common point of these two clubs is that they did not keep Mourinho for the full 3 years and both decided to fire him early due to poor performance.
Mourinho has not signed a contract with any club since being fired by AS Roma recently. Meanwhile, at Man Utd, coach Erik ten Hag is facing a lot of pressure due to the poor performance of the team at Old Trafford. The "Red Devils" are ranked 9th in the Premier League and have only 1 victory in the last 6 rounds.
