New Manchester United manager, Louis van Gaal, has revealed that Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho, sent him a text after his appointment was confirmed, to reveal his envy at the list of clubs he has managed.

Van Gaal has previously coached Ajax, Barcelona and Bayern Munich and will add United to that resume this summer.

Mourinho was almost hired to take charge of Barcelona, before Pep Guardiola was eventually appointed in 2008 and it is widely reported that he was keen on succeeding Sir Alex Ferguson at Old Trafford, but David Moyes was chosen.
Jose Mourinho was one of the first people that texted me when I got the job. He said that he was jealous of my resume of clubs,” Van Gaal said with a smirk.

The 62-year-old Dutchman, was adamant that he would not have any problems with Ferguson, who is now on the board of directors at United.

I will probably have a drink with Sir Alex Ferguson, but we’ve done that a couple of times before,” he added. “We get along quite fine.

“I don’t think his pressure will be a big problem. I put a lot of pressure on myself. We need to get United back to the summit, as soon as possible.

“Maybe people will think that this will happen in the first seeason, but we’ll have to see. In the end, there’s only one team that becomes champions.
