Manchester United legend Nicky Butt believes Jose Mourinho would have been an ideal manager for the Red Devils.
In a chat with Paddy Power, Butt noted that Mourinho’s winning mentality and track record of delivering trophies would make him a strong candidate to take charge at Old Trafford once again.

“He’s a winner and can carry that football club, but the powers that be would never allow it, as they now prefer a manager who focuses solely on coaching rather than controlling recruitment,” he told Paddy Power.
“No established manager will want to come to Manchester United without guarantees on budget, time, and control. The structure right now makes it difficult, and they may prefer someone like Michael Carrick instead.”
Mourinho guided United to Europa League and League Cup success between 2016 and 2018 before departing on difficult terms.
