Louis van Gaal has been sacked as manager
of Manchester United, several British media outlets reported Monday,
amid speculation he will be replaced by Jose Mourinho.
Both Van Gaal and leading employment lawyer Paul Gilroy were seen entering United’s Carrington training ground on Monday.
Gilroy’s clients have included David Moyes, whose sacking as United manager paved the way for Van Gaal’s appointment.
There has yet been no official confirmation from United, 20-times
English champions, about the position of Van Gaal, who still has a
season remaining on his three-year contract.
But James Ducker, the northern football correspondent of Britain’s
Daily Telegraph newspaper, tweeted Monday: “Paul Gilroy QC finalising
Van Gaal’s severance package now…£5m pay off. Expect an announcement
lunchtime.”
The BBC said that United would make a statement about Van Gaal at 1:00pm local time (1200 GMT) Monday.
