Premier League giants Manchester United have appointed Ole Gunnar Solskjær as their new manager until the end of the ongoing 2018/19 Premier League season.

He will be joined by Mike Phelan as first-team coach, together with Michael Carrick and Kieran McKenna this season at Old Trafford.
Manchester United made this latest information known on their official social media page on Wednesday morning, December 19.
