Ole Gunnar Solskjaer Confirmed as Man United's Full-Time Manager

The management of Manchester United has announced the appointment of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as the club's full-time Manager on a three-year contract. Solskjaer, a prolific striker, who earned himself the nickname 'Baby Assassin" in his playing days at the club was hired as caretaker manager in December 2018, following Jose Mourinho's exit.  

Solskjaer scored 126 goals in 366 appearances for United between 1996 and 2007 and also managed the club’s reserve team until the end of 2010. 
He won his first eight games in charge on the way to an overall record of 14 victories and two draws in 19 games, amassing more Premier League points than any other club during that time.

“From the first day I arrived, I felt at home at this special club,”

 said Solskjær.  “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.”
In his comments, Ed Woodward, the club's Vice Chairman said “more than just performances and results, Ole brings a wealth of experience, both as a player and as a coach, coupled with a desire to give young players their chance and a deep understanding of the culture of the club. This all means that he is the right person to take Manchester United forward".
