Manchester United are clear 9/2 second favourites with Betfred
to win the Premier League next season after a very special
appointment!

Jose Mourinho taking the top job
at Old Trafford.
Betfred have cut the Reds to 9/2 from 11/2 to be Premier League
champions next season - clear second favourites behind Manchester City but ahead of Chelsea, Arsenal and Tottenham.
Mourinho's reported appointment follows three days of talks
between the celebrated Portuguese manager's representative and
United officials with the problems over this image rights blamed
for the delay in announcing him as the headline-grabbing successor
to unpopular Louis van Gaal.
Dutchman van Gaal was sacked on
Monday - 48 hours after winning the FA Cup but the team's
fifth-place Premier League finish and therefore missing out on
Champions League qualification sealed van Gaal's fate.
Now all eyes are on the battle to be top dogs in Manchester with City's also having a new
high-profile boss in Mourinho's long-standing great rival Pep
Guardiola.
Betfred have United 15/8 to finish above City next season and in

deliver a Premier League-FA cup double to Old Trafford in his first

top table both on the domestic front and in Europe. Zlatan
Ibrahimovic is 1/7 with Betfred that he'll sign during the
summer transfer window with John
Stones 5/2, Harry Kane and
Paul Pogba (both 8/1) with Cristiano
Ronaldo 16/1 to leave Real Madrid for a sensational return
to the Reds.
Meanwhile Betfred boss and United fan Fred Done reacted to the news,
"I'm delighted we've got Mourinho. Let's hope the Special one
brings the Premier League back to Old Trafford."
