BREAKING: Former Man United’s coach bows to fans pressure agree to rejoin the Club

Former Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has admitted he “would say yes” to managing the Premier League giants in the future.

The 51-year-old has been without a club since he was sacked by Man Utd towards the end of 2021 after 168 matches in charge across all competitions.

Erik ten Hag was Solskjaer’s permanent replacement as the Dutch head coach was appointed ahead of the 2022/23 campaign.

The 54-year-old came under serious pressure last season as Man Utd struggled en route to finishing eighth in the Premier League, but he kept his job after winning the FA Cup.

However, Ten Hag is still in danger and is one of the favourites to be the first Premier League manager sacked this season.

Man Utd are reportedly ‘seriously considering a change’ and they have ‘two stand out’ candidates in mind to replace Ten Hag.

After United’s disappointing 1-1 draw against FC Twente in their Europa League opener, Ten Hag was asked about pressure from the media. He said: “If you lose at the top, you always have a problem, no matter which coach. The board knows that we are in a process and that we are building. It is much calmer now. If we are a few months further, I think we can really build a nice team.

“I’m used to that. That was the case at Ajax and it’s the case here. These are clubs that are always in the spotlight. Everyone has an opinion about it. You have to deal with that and not let it distract you: just keep working stoically.”
