It's still fresh and although it is not a surprise, to everyone it is coming as a shock even though we knew that at some point, Mourinho would have to be relieved of his duties as manager of Manchester United, one of the biggest clubs in Europe. But the timing couldn't have been more wrong and this is because they are just few days to christmas and it hasn't been confirmed yet if the Portuguese wasn't still in pole position to overturn the fortune of the club before January.
The old trafford outfit will have to pay the Portuguese a massive amount in severance fee. Also, at this moment, several of their top targets are still tied to their clubs as their contracts are still very much intact.
Laurent Blanc, the manager who led PSG from 2013 to 2016 has been tipped to be favoured to take over the club as caretaker coach till the end of the season.
