Independent.co reports Manchester United have held talks with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer about becoming their interim manager until the end of the current season. The discussions follow the sacking of Ruben Amorim after 14 months in charge, with under-18s coach Darren Fletcher currently acting as interim.

Solskjaer previously managed United from 2018 to 2021 and is considered a strong candidate for the interim role because of his long history with the club. United say they are seeking an interim appointment to allow time for a permanent manager to be appointed in the summer.

Crystal Palace boss Oliver Glasner is named as a top candidate for the permanent position, with Kieran McKenna, Enzo Maresca and Julian Nagelsmann also being considered. The report does not say whether any agreement with Solskjaer has been reached.
