Jose Mourinho is “the wrong man for the job” at&nbsp;Manchester United, says Lee Sharpe, with the Portuguese set to be “gone before Christmas”.

I think he’ll be gone before Christmas.” <a href="http://www.goal.com/en/news/mourinho-will-be-gone-before-christmas-man-utd-boss-wrong/vf1s9xc3uoywzpy8zz2pbq9i" target="_blank">Read the full story on Goal!</a>

'Mourinho will be gone by Christmas'

Paris Saint-Germain are exploring the option of luring Ivan Rakitic and Sergio Busquets away from Barcelona, reports Spanish publication <a href="https://www.sport.es/es/noticias/barca/psg-interesa-por-busquets-rakitic-6995379" target="_blank">Sport</a>. Their efforts to land Busquets appear set to come to nothing, with it understood that the World Cup winner has fresh terms in place at Camp Nou which will raise his release clause to €200 million (£179m/$228m). PSG may, however, have more success with Rakitic, with it possible that they could meet the €125m (£112m/$143m)&nbsp;asking price in his contract.
