Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has said he would jump at the opportunity to return to Manchester United as manager.
Solskjaer, who took over from Jose Mourinho in December 2018, initially on an interim basis, has been without a job since being fired by the Red Devils in November 2021.
Although the Norwegian guided United to a second-place finish in 2021, the former Molde coach was unable to win silverware as manager and his exit came following a run of six defeats.
But with permanent successor Erik ten Hag now under increasing pressure at United after just three wins in eight games this season, Solskjaer has said that he would not rule out a second stint as manager at Old Trafford if the club make the call.
“If the family [United] asks, I would say yes every day of the week,” Solskjaer said in a Q&A at the Oslo Business Forum. “It feels wrong to talk about jobs that other people have now, but I would say yes, of course.”
The Red Devils are once again struggling under Ten Hag and after their disappointing 1-1 draw against FC Twente in the Europa League opener, they will hope to put things right against Tottenham at home this weekend.
