According to Mourinho, he is yet to put pen on paper for any club, adding that Louis Van Gaal is a friend to him.
“Van Gaal is my friend, I worked with him for a few years. I am always linked with jobs and in the summer I will have a job, but in this moment I can promise you I do not have a contract with any club. I am not in a position to turn jobs down, I am in a position to analyse. I am in a position to be open to any club or national team,” Mourinho said.

“I would prefer to be in England. I love the country, I love the football here, my family is very stable and happy. If possible, yes, it would be my first choice,” the 53-year-old added.
Mourinho has disclosed to friends and associates he will become Manchester United’s manager at the end of the season, according to reports in several British newspapers
