Sir Alex Ferguson has offered some advice to his eventual successor at Manchester United.
Jose Mourinho remains one of the favourites to take over from Ferguson when he retires, and the United boss offered an insight into the kind of character required to succeed him.
“We’re a massive club, there’s no question about that, and you have to ingrain yourself into the fabric of the club immediately,” he said.
“That gives you a good chance in terms of understanding the history. It’s not a history you should be afraid of. I was never afraid of it, I was proud to be part of the history.
“Then, after that you need a strong personality, a strong mentality and, of course, you need to know the game.”
