Ole Gunnar Solskjaer Set for Talks About Interim Manager Role at Manchester United
Posted on January 10, 2026, updated on January 10, 2026
Following the sacking of Ruben Amorim, Manchester United is reportedly in discussions with former manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer regarding a return as interim head coach. Solskjaer, who led the club between 2018 and 2021, is seen as a strong candidate to step in temporarily until a permanent replacement is found.
In addition to Solskjaer, Michael Carrick, another club legend, has also been approached about taking on the interim role. Current interim manager Darren Fletcher is also in the mix but is perceived as a longer-term option for the club's future.
As the club looks to stabilize following a turbulent period, the goal is to secure an appointment before the pivotal Manchester derby. Club sources emphasize that both Solskjaer and Carrick are valued for their deep understanding of the club's culture.
While Fletcher continues to manage the team for now, the urgency to establish a clear direction is paramount. With the next matches approaching, United's leadership is keen to restore confidence and competitiveness to a side that has faced numerous challenges this season.
