Manchester United are set to appoint Jose Mourinho as their
new manager, BBC Sport understands.
It is believed a deal with the 53-year-old Portuguese was agreed
in principle before United's FA Cup final win against Crystal
Palace on Saturday.
With United failing to qualify for the Champions League under
Louis van Gaal, the Old Trafford hierarchy is thought to have
decided a change is required.
Mourinho has been out of work since he was sacked by Chelsea
in December.
