Manchester United will not bring Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to Old Trafford as they scour the market for a long-term replacement for Erik ten Hag.
According to a report by Give Me Sport, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is not the subject of interest from Manchester United. The Red Devils are scouring the market for a long-term replacement for Erik ten Hag amid growing pressure on the Dutch tactician, especially after the heavy defeat to Tottenham Hotspur this past weekend.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer endured a topsy-turvy ride during his spell as the Manchester United manager. The Norwegian tactician returned to Old Trafford as the caretaker manager after the Red Devils parted ways with Jose Mourinho in December 2018.
Solskjaer delivered some memorable results, including the remarkable comeback win over Paris Saint-Germain, during his spell as the interim manager at Manchester United. That helped the 51-year-old earn the spot of the permanent boss of the Premier League club towards the end of the 2018/19 season.
The former Manchester United striker could not win trophies during his spell at Manchester United. However, the Red Devils played an eye-catching brand of football during his stint at Old Trafford. His time at Manchester United ended midway through the 2021/22 season, with the Premier League heavyweights enduring a disastrous start to that campaign.
Manchester United parted ways with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, and Erik ten Hag replaced him as the permanent manager at the onset of the 2022/23 season. While the Dutch tactician delivered the EFL Cup in his debut season with Manchester United, the Red Devils have blown hot and cold in the last 12 months.
While Manchester United won the FA Cup last season, they were atrocious in the Premier League. The patterns have continued in the first few weeks of the 2024/25 season, with Manchester United dropping to 13th in the standings after managing only seven points in their first six games.
So, it is hardly surprising that Erik ten Hag is walking the tightrope at Old Trafford. However, the Red Devils have ruled out re-signing Solskjaer to replace the Dutchman next year. So, the Norwegian tactician will not return to Old Trafford anytime soon.
