After firing Jose Mourinho for failing in terms of style and substance yesterday, Manchester United appoints Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as new caretaker manager.
, the club have acted quickly to bring in their former striker and reserve team coach.
Molde boss Solskjaer has been brought in until the end of the campaign and will be joined by first-team coach Mike Phelan, who will work alongside Michael Carrick and Kieran McKenna.
Solskjaer said: “Manchester United is in my heart and it’s brilliant to be coming back in this role. I’m really looking forward to working with the very talented squad we have, the staff and everyone at the club.”
United moved quickly to appoint the former striker after Mourinho’s exit and executive vice chairman Ed Woodward feels the Norwegian is a good fit.
He said: “Ole is a club legend with huge experience, both on the pitch and in coaching roles. His history at Manchester United means he lives and breathes the culture here and everyone at the club is delighted to have him and Mike Phelan back.”

He managed the Bluebirds between January 2014 to September 2014, failing to stop them being relegated from the Premier League.
Solskjaer won just nine of his 30 games in charge, losing 16 and drawing five.
Speaking moments before Solskjaer’s appointment was made official, former United first-team coach Rene Meulensteen warned it would be a huge job for the Norwegian.
“It would be a good choice in terms of the fact that they want to bring back some of the spirit that was at United in the time of Sir Alex Ferguson, and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was a big part of that,” he said on Sky Sports News.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, arraigned and secured the convictions of three Internet fraudsters, popularized as “yahoo-yahoo boys”, on December 18, 2018.
The boys identified as Emeka Anyanechi Ekene, 27; Anthony Oghuma, 26, and Onokebhagbe Okouromi Franklin, 25 were brought before Justice D.Z. Senchi of a Federal Capital Territory, FCT High Court, Jabi, for various offences bordering on Internet fraud.
Ekene was arraigned on a four-count charge bordering on cheating, and for specializing in inducing his victims through a Facebook account, to part with their hard earned money. The offence contravenes Section 95 of the Penal Code, Laws of the Federation of Nigeria (Abuja) 1990.
Oghuma, on his part, was arraigned on a one-count charge, bordering on obtaining by false pretence. He allegedly induced a Canadian who goes simply by the name, David, to transfer N2 million to him. The offence contravenes Section 320 (a) of the Penal Code, Laws of the Federation of Nigeria (Abuja) 1990 and punishable under Section 322 of the same Law.
Franklin was arraigned on a four-count charge, bordering on obtaining by false pretence, for inducing a New York-based divorcee who goes by the name, Mary, posing as Peter Mark, a Contractor based in Malaysia. He swindled Mary of $10,000 (about N3.6million) and lured her to send him several expensive gadgets including: Apple Macbook Laptop, Apple Iphone X, Apple Iphone 7, amongst others. His offence contravenes Section 320 (a) of the Penal Code, Laws of the Federation of Nigeria (Abuja) 1990 and punishable under Section 322 of the same law.
They did not waste the time of the court as they all pleaded “guilty” to the charges.

An 18-year-old lad, with the name, Adeboye Michael, and two of his friends, Nafiu Ojo and Abdullahi Lawal, have been arrested in Ogun State for allegedly faking his kidnap in order to steal his employer’s money.
The arrest of the trio followed a complaint lodged by one Oluwoju Ojo Abiodun, who reported that he had sent his apprentice, Michael, to a bank to deposit the sum of N500,000, only for him to receive a call, after some hours, that the boy had been kidnapped.
The complainant told the police that the caller ordered him to send the sum of N1 million for Michael to be released, with an instruction that he only needed to add N500,000 to the N500,000 he had given his apprentice to deposit at the bank.
Detectives subsequently embarked on an investigation, and when the suspects discovered that their game would soon be up, Michael suddenly emerged, with fabricated tales on his fake abduction.
Two days later, on December 13, 2018, the so-called abductors, Nafiu Ojo and Abdullahi Lawal, were tracked down and apprehended.
On interrogation, they narrated how Michael contracted them to act as kidnappers and put a call through to his boss in order to make away with the N500,000 in his possession.
Upon their confession, Michael was arrested. He made a confessional statement that he only lodged in a hotel with two girls, where he squandered his boss’ money. The leftover of N120,000, being part of the money, was recovered from him.
