Jose Mourinho and Spurs squad arrive ahead of Manchester United clash on Wednesday night

Jose Mourinho and his Spurs squad have arrived in Manchester ahead of the Premier League clash against his former side Manchester United on Wednesday.

Mourinho returns to Old Trafford for the first time as a manager since his sacking in December last year.

The 58-year-old manager has won all three of his opening games as Spurs boss since taking over from the departing Mauricio Pochettino.

Meanwhile, in Manchester pressure is starting to mount on Mourinho's successor Ole Gunnar Solskjaer following a dismal run of results.

Since becoming the permanent manager of Manchester United, Solskjaer has won just 27.3 per cent of Premier League matches, with Pochettino and others linked with the hot seat at Old Trafford.

With a match against Spurs coming on Wednesday and a huge derby against Manchester City on Saturday, this week could prove crucial to Solskjaer's future at the club, with Mourinho poised to try and exact revenge on his former side.

The Portuguese boss arrived with his squad at the club's chosen hotel on Tuesday night before signing autographs for fans.

The Spurs players that were pictured arriving for the clash were: Paulo Gazzaniga, Serge Aurier, Toby Alderweireld, Jan Vertonghen, Danny Rose, Ryan Sessegnon, Eric Dier, Tanguy Ndombele, Harry Winks, Moussa Sissoko, Giovani Lo Celso, Christian Eriksen, Dele Alli, Lucas Moura, Son Heung-min and Harry Kane - though others may not have arrived at the same time.
