Louis van Gaal could quit Man Utd with Jose Mourinho kept being informed of his situation

Van Gaal has come under pressure at Old Trafford this

season, particularly during a winless run of eight

games before the turn of the year.

The Dutchman brought a smile back to Red Devils fans'

faces after overseeing a 1-0 win at bitter rivals

Liverpool on Sunday - their third victory in their last

four games.

And it is claimed Van Gaal could quit United a year

before his contract expires - with Jose Mourinho poised

to replace him.
