The Norwegian does not go on the bench in the Champions League. The defeat against Watford was fatal to the coach. Interim team to former Red Devils player, then Glazers aim for Zizou
The 4-1 defeat to Claudio Ranieri’s Watford cost Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as Manchester United’s bench, according to the Daily Telegraph at 0.35am on the night between Saturday and Sunday. The Norwegian manager’s fate appeared to be sealed after the collapse against Gino Pozzo’s club, the fourth knockout in the last 5 games. Solskjaer at the end of the game went to apologize to the Red Devils fans, but after having strenuously defended the former striker who was the protagonist of the Champions League triumph in 1999, this time the people of United said enough, inviting the manager to step aside. At 7 pm, London time, a long conference call between the US and England began, in which the Glazer family, after evaluating the costs of the exemption of Solskjaer, who in July had extended the contract until 2024, decided in each case of firing the technician. The team will be temporarily entrusted to Darren Fletcher, 37, a former Red Devils midfielder. It will be up to him to lead the group against Villarreal, pending the appointment of the new manager.
OBJECTIVE ZIDANE
–
The Glazers, who have owned Manchester United since 2005, have decided to go to great lengths to persuade Zinedine Zidane to accept the leadership of the Red Devils. The former Real Madrid manager has declined the first offer, stating that he does not want to take up the post during the current season, but the English club will now return to the charge. The final obstacle to Zizou’s appointment is the reluctance of the former midfielder’s wife, Ms Veronique, to move to Manchester.
