Ole Gunnar Solskjaer ‘contacted over international job’ two years after he was sacked by Man Utd
OLE GUNNAR SOLSKJAER was offered a return to management two years after being sacked by Manchester United.
United dismissed Solskjaer in November 2021 following a string of poor results and disastrous performances.
The Norwegian tactician has since been out of a job but he has been offered a few opportunities ever since his Old Trafford exodus.
The 50-year-old was presented with the opportunity to manage Leicester in the Championship this summer but the role was ultimately filled by Enzo Maresca.
However, the United legend was offered another chance to return to the dugout most recently.
According to Soccerdonna, the United legend was earmarked for the vacant position of manager for Norway’s women’s team.
However, Solskjaer has already turned down that offer and remains a free agent.
The legendary striker initially replaced Jose Mourinho on an interim basis in 2018 and won over United fans, just like he did as a player.
The ex-Norway international led the Red Devils to second place in the 2020-2021 season, which is their joint best finish since Sir Alex Ferguson’s retirement in 2013.
