Pointing the way: Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is currently
in charge of the Manchester United reserve team
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is being lined up to be the next
manager of Norwegian side Rosenborg. The former Manchester United
striker is currently the reserve team boss at Old
Trafford.
Rosenborg boss Eric Hamren is the frontrunner to take over as
head coach of the Sweden national team and has already been
interviewed for the position, leaving the Norwegian champions to
make contingency plans.
Solskjaer is so highly regarded in his home country
that he was offered the chance to manager his country earlier this
year. He has again been consulted on who he thinks should land the
Norway job, though it is thought the 36-year-old is not in the
running for that role.
Solskjaer's adviser Jim Solbakken said: 'It is only natural that
the Norwegian club would check out Ole Gunnar’s situation. He will
not be reserve team coach at Manchester United for the rest of his
life.'
