JOSE MOURINHO has joked that Manchester United should be awarded the 2018 Premier League title after Man City’s Financial Fair Play breach.

There could yet be repercussions for City at home, with the Premier League reportedly planning to launch a domestic investigation into their finances.

And Mourinho has cheekily claimed his Red Devils should be handed the trophy for that season.
The now-Spurs boss said: “I have to ask if the team that finished second in 2018 is going to be champions.

“From what I got is that Uefa punish them but they have the chance to appeal.
“I think until the appeal finished, City have the benefit of the doubt.
“In the end of the process we will see if they are punished or not.”
