JOSE MOURINHO will be Manchester United’s next manager - and it could be confirmed by May 23.
That’s the claim of Italian transfer guru Emanuele Giulianelli.
Ex-Chelsea chief Mourinho has been hotly tipped to replace Louis van Gaal this summer.
The Dutchman is under pressure after failing to secure a top four spot this season.
Top brass at the club are due to meet after tomorrow’s FA Cup final to discuss his future.
But Giulianelli believes the outcome has already been decided.
In his Tribal Football blog, he said reports of Mourinho heading to Turkey to manage Fenerbahcewere wide of the mark
He added Mourinho will be the new Manchester United boss with an announcement scheduled for May 23 (Monday).
His backroom team is yet to be finalised, but Giulianelli claims no hiccups are expected.
