New United Contract Offer Untrue–Mourinho

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has dismissed reports of any new contract offer for him at the club.

With over 2 years left in his 3-year contract he signed in July, several British newspaper reported that the former Chelsea manager was set to be offered a new deal.

“They didn’t [offer a new contract] and I’m not expecting them to, because they gave me a three- year contract and were being super supportive” he told Sky Sports News.

“They always gave me the feeling three years was not the time I was going to stay and I got the feeling I was going to stay for more time.”

“They know if one day they bring the contract I will sign, because I love it here.”

Asked whether a mega-money move to the Chinese Super League might tempt him, he said: “China money is attractive for everyone, but I love more my football at the highest level.”

“I’m too young, 53, (have) too many years of football to go to a place like China. I want to stay in the place where it is most difficult to win.”
