Jose Mourinho’s reported salary and bonuses see Manchester United shatter pay structures

A daily wage of £32,876 for 'The Special One'.

Jose Mourinho has been officially confirmed as Manchester United boss this morning. The Portuguese coach and his advisors were locked in negotiations with United for three days, with image rights [previously held by Chelsea], the apparent hold-up. Mourinho's personal terms were sorted as far back as Tuesday. Needless to say, for a coach that has won eight league titles and two Champions League trophies, his pay deal is lucrative. https://twitter.com/SportsJOE_co_uk/status/735941601587908609 The Times report Mourinho will earn £12m a year, penning a three-season deal that is an initial outlay of £36m from United. That is significantly higher than the £22m United set out for Louis van Gaal's three-year deal, signed in 2014. The club reportedly ended up paying the Dutchman £5m for not seeing out the final year of his deal. Mourinho's annual wage is lower than Pep Guardiola's £15m a season deal at Manchester City but he could top that figure by earning some bonus payments. Mourinho's contract reportedly ensures him £2.5m for a Premier League win and £5m if he is to secure his new team a Champions League. Nice work if you can get it.
