Carlos Queiroz believes Manchester United and Jose Mourinho are a natural fit.
The former Real Madrid coach, who had two stints as assistant manager at United, can see Mourinho taking the job.
He told France Football: "I cannot say if Jose Mourinho is on his way to Manchester United.
"But I can say that any crossroads between a big club and Jose Mourinho is a logical and natural meeting point."
Mourinho remains favourite to succeed Louis van Gaal at Old Trafford at the end of this season.
