Van Gaal has been out of management since being sacked by United in 2016 – the Red Devils subsequently appointed Jose Mourinho on a three-year deal. It is claimed Van Gaal is only being looked at as a short-term option – the club would make a permanent appointment at the end of the season when the dust settles. ‘I’d be interested in a Premier League club where I’d have the chance to get one over on Manchester United,’ Van Gaal said earlier in the year.
