Jose Mourinho is on the verge of signing a contract extension that will keep him at Manchester United until 2021, Sky Sports News understands.
Mourinho is currently midway through the three-year deal he signed when he succeeded Louis van Gaal in May 2016. That contract expires in June 2019.
He added that his intention was to "bring the club to where the club belongs" and described reports he could leave this summer as "garbage".
Significantly, Mourinho has been pleased with the commitment the club has shown to him by going after his transfer targets and getting them.
At the moment United are looking to break with their recent transfer window tradition and bring in a major signing in January in the shape of Alexis Sanchez.
Sky Sports News understands the club are leading the chase to sign the Chile international after Manchester City withdrew from negotiations over costs.
