28 Mar Manchester United appoint Solskjaer as permanent manager
Manchester United has confirmed that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has been appointed as their permanent manager on a three-year contract.
Solskjaer has been rewarded for his excellent work since taking the job on an interim basis in December following the sacking of Jose Mourinho.
Under the Norwegian, the Red Devils currently sit fifth in the Premier League – two points outside the top four – and will face Barcelona in the quarter-finals of the Champions League.
“From the first day I arrived, I felt at home at this special club,” Solskjaer said.
“It was an honour to be a Manchester United player, and then to start my coaching career here. The last few months have been a fantastic experience and I want to thank all of the coaches, players and staff for the work we’ve done so far.
"This is the job that I always dreamed of doing and I’m beyond excited to have the chance to lead the club long-term and hopefully deliver the continued success that our amazing fans deserve.”
Ole’s at the wheel! We can confirm that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has been appointed as #MUFC manager.
