OLE GUNNAR SOLSKJAER has hit back at the rumours that he will be returning to management.
It has been over two years since he was sacked at Manchester United and the Norwegian has revealed he is not ready just yet to head back into the dugout until certain conditions are met.
Solskjaer, 50, returned to United in 2018 as caretaker boss after Jose Mourinho was given not the boot.
And three months later, after an impressive start, the former Red Devils forward signed permanently.
But in November 2021 after three years in charge, Solskjaer was given the boot – and he hasn’t managed another club since.
Speaking on Gary Neville’s Stick to Football, brought to you by SkyBet, Solskjaer revealed he has been offered a “few” managerial roles recently.

He said: “I have a few offers but I’m not ready.
“It’s got to be somewhere I can be myself not like anyone dictating ‘you need to do this, you need to do that’.
“Because when you have been at United and managed them. You learn a few things and you want to do it your way the next time.”
Solskjaer has been searching for a new job since the beginning of the season but has yet to find the right project.

He was linked to Besiktas in January and revealed he rejected two offers from Saudi Arabia.
The Norwegian said previously: “I’ve had offers. Most recently, two from Saudi Arabia.
“My best mate, who is also my agent, sifts through them. If you’ve managed Man Utd, you put your own criteria about what you want to work with. I love England and the Premier League.
“Even the Championship feels stronger than ever, but I don’t feel bound to England. Maybe a different challenge where I need to experience a new culture and learn a new language.
“The DNA and identity of the club are important, a club where I can be the best me. It has to be a match.
“Maybe I made the wrong decision to go to Cardiff, for example, where there was a clash of identities and styles.
“What I miss most is working with good people, coming in every day, discussing football and putting a plan together for the next game.
“It’s not just about formations, but creating a culture where the staff enjoy their job and building a team together.”
