That's the perfect club for him.
Loads of money and easy wins :)

Would certainly massage his ego even further to say he won yet another league in yet another Country.

Even if that Country has a league that is as competitive as Scotland.

Exactly.
It's a joke of a league. Look at the goal and points difference. It's like an FM save where the player has been abusing FMRTE.

The Jose links to PSG are made up trip by Burton. And Mou has denied the rumours today saying he wants to work in a challenging league and prefers to stay in England. Also no French sports outlet running it today what so ever.
 
Plus Luckhurst, Delaney, Jackson and Palmer are all saying on Twitter he won't go to work in Paris. And have quoted one of his recent interviews.

True I suppose but they have just given him a long term contract and was reported in France that they went to see him after they was knocked out of the CL and gave him there backing for the future. And tbh Sky is as reliable as MEN these days :) ok not that bad but not as good as they use to be. Can't wait for this season to be over ! Gonna be fun summer for most clubs

He will if Jose wants them. Mendes does what's best fro his clients, you're absolutely right. But Jose is one of his biggest clients and he will do what he can to help him too, and that certainly includes funnelling players his way, providing the player is happy overall with the move.

I think we are saying essentially the same thing. Player has to be happy with the overall move. He will not do it simply because Jose is managing United

Oh, not reading much of anything into it. Wouldn't be surprised if Mendez put this out there to try force Utd's hand.

But IF the Qatari's do get involved it becomes interesting. They're way more crazy than the City owners have ever been when it comes to money being no object. The combination of living in Paris with an unlimited budget to go chase a third European Cup with a third different team ..... it would make things interesting for him in a month or so.

Oh 100%

Jose wants the United job, otherwise he would have signed up to PSG weeks ago. Long been wanted there.

This is all about having an option, and forcing a decision form United/putting the power balance back in Mendes' hand.

Oh of course, but if the player was open to a move, he would push them there if Jose wanted that player.
 
About the Mourinho to PSG rumours(which I don't believe)I would actually prefer it happened if it means we can get Laurent blanc as manager, he may be tactically inferior, but he looks like a good long term manager and actually knows the club(played for us 2001-2003).
Thoughts?

Knowing the club is not that important.
 
Jose Mourinho is still targeting the Manchester United job this summer, sources close to both manager and club have told ESPN FC, despite reports on Tuesday that Paris Saint-Germain had made an official approach.

Mourinho would only consider a move to another club if the Old Trafford job was 100 percent off the table, but many connected to the situation believe it is increasingly likely the former Chelsea manager will be appointed at United to replace Louis van Gaal.

There have already been extensive discussions, while sources told ESPN FC that Mourinho has started reaching out to potential members of his backroom staff, although no contract has been signed yet and the situation remains open.

Mourinho's camp reached out to PSG -- and Inter Milan -- in October when the prospect of him getting sacked by Chelsea first arose, but the latest reports -- which the French club have said "no comment" to -- are wide of the mark.

Indeed, sources close to PSG say the situation has moved on since then, and there is a willingness to give Laurent Blanc, who signed a new two-year contract in January, at least another season to win the Champions League, despite last week's quarterfinal elimination to Manchester City.
There has been another link between PSG and Mourinho, however, as the Portuguese has expressed approval towards the idea of United signing Zlatan Ibrahimovic on a free transfer in the summer.

The Sweden international would be one of five main first-team signingsMourinho would plan for the Old Trafford club, including two defenders, a commanding midfielder -- with Benfica's Renato Sanches hugely admired -- and a fast winger. The 53-year-old is also a huge admirer of Tottenham's Harry Kane.

Sources say Mourinho has also privately been raving about the form of Marcus Rashford, and would see him as a playing a key role in his United team.
