It seems like we've been waiting since bloody January for Jose Mourinho to be officially announced as Manchester United manager but, even with the sacking of Louis van Gaal, a deal has still not been confirmed.
And
, a sponsorship issue is what's delaying the appointment according to Sky Sports.
"Both United and Mourinho are tied to numerous commercial partnerships, and must pay careful consideration to the pre-existing commitments to their respective sponsors when Mourinho becomes United's manager," Sky reporter Andy Burton explained.
"There is common ground for Mourinho and United in their respective deals with adidas. The incoming United manager is a global ambassador for the kit suppliers, whose £750m, 10-year deal with United, came into effect in 2015.
"However, one example of potential conflict is Mourinho's commercial deal with Jaguar, which is at odds with United's seven-year deal with General Motors, which sees Chevrolet as the club's shirt sponsor."
Sort it out, Woodward. We're all losing interest at this stage.
