Chelsea

Mourinho is the favourite to replace United manager Louis van Gaal, but may have to accept a pay cut to take over at Old Trafford.

Chelsea beat Sunderland 3-1 this morning at Stamford Bridge to move up one place into 15th on the league ladder.

Earlier this morning, Chelsea announced that the former Netherlands coach Guus Hiddink will be the club's interim manager until the end of the season following Mourinho's dismissal.
