Molde coach and Manchester United
legend Ole Gunnar Solskjaer confesses he wants to one day manage Manchester United.
Solskjaer has now led Molde to
back-to-back titles in Norway.
“I have been asked that question and
answered that question hundreds of times. I’m not thinking I am ready to do
this (be United’s manager) and I am not thinking it will happen one day but you
have to dream,” Ole told the Manchester Evening News.
“Sir Alex Ferguson always taught us
to have big ambitions and big dreams. I am not naive enough at this stage to
think I can do that job but every player who has played for Manchester United and has become a coach or manager or has
ambitions that way would want to have that opportunity one day. You never know
what is around the corner. But Sir Alex has got many years left in him, don’t worry about
that.
“I have never hidden the fact I want
to be a manager in the Premier League one day. The time will come. I don’t
doubt that".
“I’ve had offers and talks but at
the moment I want to finish this season as we have two games left in the
league, try and progress in the Europa League and then the target hopefully is
to get Molde in the Champions League proper next season.
“Those are my short-term ambitions
but long-term I can see myself wanting the opportunity in England or at a
bigger club."
