Former Manchester United Striker Ole Gunnar Solskjaer named as Manchester united caretaker

Former Manchester United striker Ole Gunnar Solskjaer looks set to replace sacked manager Jose Mourinho until the end of the season after the Premier League strugglers appeared to accidentally announce his return.

Molde boss Solskjaer emerged as a serious caretaker candidate after the Red Devils announced they were looking to appoint an interim manager for the remainder of the campaign, with Tottenham’s Mauricio Pochettino reportedly the number one target in the off-season.
And United’s online team seemingly jumped the gun late on Tuesday when they uploaded a video – later deleted – to their official website, with the caption: “Solskjaer becomes our interim manager, 20 seasons after clinching the Treble with THAT goal at Camp Nou…”


Solskjaer spent 11 trophy-laden seasons at Old Trafford, where the 45-year-old won six Premier League titles and two FA Cups before he retired in 2007.
