Former Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has reportedly hinted at a possible return to Old Trafford in a new advisory capacity
Former Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has reportedly hinted at a possible return to Old Trafford, sparking fresh speculation about his future involvement with the club.
During a live television appearance, the Norwegian was said to have spoken openly about his strong emotional connection to United and his willingness to help the club navigate its current difficulties. He also allegedly revealed that he had held private discussions with influential figures at Old Trafford in recent weeks about improving the team’s direction.
Solskjaer reportedly made it clear that he would not reject an opportunity to serve the club again if approached, although no official appointment has been announced.
The proposed comeback is believed to be different from his previous spell in charge. Rather than returning to the touchline as head coach, reports suggest he could be considered for a senior advisory position, working alongside the club’s leadership and technical staff on its footballing identity, culture and long-term planning.
His potential involvement has generated mixed reactions among supporters. While some believe his understanding of United’s traditions and the Sir Alex Ferguson era could be valuable, others argue that the club needs fresh ideas rather than familiar faces.
For now, Solskjaer’s reported comments have fuelled the discussion, but there is no independent confirmation of the alleged talks or any formal offer from United.
