Van Gaal said, “I promised that to my wife,” he said. “We have not many years together any more.
“I have to admit I have said to her when I met her and after our relationship seemed to be very good, then I said at 55 years I shall quit. Now I am still working and next week I am 64.”
Van Gaal insists though that regardless of whether he wins the league, he will walk away in two years’ time.
Adamant that he will give the job up when his current contract ends, he said: “I have done everything in my career as a manager. I have been in the Netherlands, my home country. I have been in Spain, fantastic league. Germany, fantastic league. Now I am here, he said.
