Ole Gunnar Solskjaer reveals he has refused to lead the national team

September 12, 2023
Former Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has revealed that he has been approached by the Norwegian Football Federation (NFF) to lead the women's national team.

Solskjaer has not worked as a coach or manager since being sacked by Manchester United in November 2021, when things began quickly after a successful first 18 months in charge.

The 50-year-old former manager has never worked in women's football, but he backed the women's sport, with his daughter Karna Solskjaer previously playing for Manchester United before taking home a contract from AaFK Fortuna. In Norway.

But despite being contacted by the NFF, Solskjaer denied it.

He told NRK:

"I talked to the association about working as a national team coach. They asked. "But I'm not ready for that yet."
