Lowry Hotel staff in tears after Manchester United sack Jose Mourinho

Jose Mourinho held an emotional 'last supper' – albeit at lunchtime – amid tearful scenes and hugs at the Lowry Hotel.

Fresh from his sacking, the former Manchester United boss drove to the iconic city centre landmark he had called home for close to 900 days to pick up his belongings and settle his account.

One resident, who did not wish to be named, told Sportsmail that Mourinho had a final meal at lunchtime in the bar of the hotel when he returned from Carrington, to end a stay lasting two years and five months.
