Jose Mourinho’s dream of becoming Manchester United manager
has moved a giant step closer.
Sources close to Real Madrid have revealed that their new boss
can leave at the end of each of his four years in charge with no
compensation to be paid by either party.
Sunday Mirror Sport revealed in May that Mourinho had insisted
in a get out clause after agreeing to join Real from Champions
League winners Inter Milan.

each summer until 2014 means that when Sir Alex Ferguson retires
the prospect of luring Mourinho as his Old Trafford successor will
be attractive and affordable.
Mourinho, 47, has always maintained that he will return to the
Premier League after winning two titles in three seasons with
Chelsea.
United is his preferred destination and he’s seen as one of the
few men with the ego to follow in Fergie’s footsteps.
The Portuguese won two Serie A championships in two seasons at
Inter, but quit the Italian club in May following the Champions
League Final victory over Bayern Munich in the Bernabeu.
