Jose Mourinho's long-time assistant Rui Faria is heading to Old Trafford, with Manchester United confirming his appointment alongside five other new coaches hired to the club's managerial staff.

The two have worked side-by-side since Mourinho's days at FC Porto, moving to Chelsea together in 2004, then to Inter Milan in 2007, and Real Madrid in 2010. The duo returned to Stamford Bridge in 2013 and link up once more with the Red Devils.
