JAMIE CARRAGHER claims that Jose Mourinho's Manchester United move is off.
Express Sport understands Mourinho is confident he will take over from Louis van Gaal this summer after a tempestuous season.
The Dutchman had looked as though he would follow a humiliating European exit with a failure to qualify for the Champions League next season.
And United were expected to sack the 64-year-old if he missed out on a top-four Premier League finish.
However, with an FA Cup final against Crystal Palace looming and the chance to reach next year's Champions League not yet gone, Van Gaal looks as though he will still be in charge next season.
And Carragher has added his voice to those pouring cold water on Mourinho's move to United.
@ChrisMUFC08 @AndyMitten @MENnewsdesk @MENSports Thanks Chris! Change your profile picture it's not happening!!
"It's not happening!!" Carragher tweeted.
United are understood to have offered to have offered Mourinho a contract starting in 2017, when Van Gaal's deal expires, but he rejected the deal.
The Portuguese has reportedly turned down a number of jobs since he was sacked by Chelsea in December in order to wait for the United post to become available.
However, he is not willing to wait another year and is said to be keen to return to management.
