Jose Mourinho is said to have ‘agreed’ to personal terms, even as talks with Manchester united continue. When the talk with the club is over, he will face the challenge of rebuilding the team.

Mourinho is said to want changes on the right wing, centre-forward, centre-back and the central midfield positions, according to the reports by the Daily Mirror.

The Portuguese has a reputation of playing a defensive game formation. This suggests that he will have to find a player to join Chris Smalling in the defense. The report further shows that the former Chelsea Boss might be interested in signing John Stones from Everton.

Ibrahimovic, if signed by the manager, will be expected to be his centre-forward. It is unclear if the manager will let Carrick, whose contract at the club ends this summer, stay at Old Trafford.

Over the years, Mourinho has shown very little faith in the youngsters at the various clubs he has managed. Currently, United seem to rely on the younger players. Whether he will work with them or not is still unclear at the moment.
