The quote is ambiguous of course but in the current climate, with odds of Mourinho taking over plummeting, it appears Van Gaal's time is up.
Van Gaal's two-year tenure as United manager has been an increasingly rocky one over the last six months, with fans and pundits alike criticising the team's style of play under the Dutchman.
United finished in the top four last season but Van Gaal was unable to replicate that feat this time round, as United missed out on Champions League qualification with a fifth-placed finish.
Van Gaal's exit is expected to be officially confirmed within the next 24 to 48 hours, with Mourinho the overwhelming favourite to replace him as manager.
The former Chelsea boss has been out of work since his sacking by the Blues in December but is expected to sign a three-year contract at Old Trafford at the start of this week
