Jose Mourinho appointed Manchester United manager on the day he won his first Champions League title in 2004, also the day United won the treble in 1999 and the day the great Matt Busby was born in 1909.
Written in the stars?

So where is Jose right now?

'Mourinho a true winner'
Football
Former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand has jumped the gun on Facebook, congratulating Jose Mourinho on being announced as manager "of the biggest club in the world."
"One thing I can tell Manchester United fans is that they have got themselves a true winner in all aspects. His CV shows success," writes Ferdinand.
"After his recent unsuccessful time at Chelsea in the final year, I can assure you this winner is now a wounded animal which makes him such a mouthwatering appointment."

Earlier today, Zlatan Ibrahimovic said this about the incoming Manchester United manager. Are the two likely to link up again? Could Manchester United make two high-profile signings in the next week or so?

The full interview with the Swedish striker is here.

"Jose Mourinho has not yet been appointed as Manchester United as the club can only do that through formal announcement on New York Stock Exchange, which they can only do when the contract is signed.
"Remember, nothing official yet from the club."
Awaiting official announcement
Football
Still nothing official from Manchester United regarding the announcement of Jose Mourinho as manager.
The club's Twitter account has not been updated for four hours, so I guess that's the place to stay across for something concrete.
