Manchester United: Solskjaer’s contract would have expired in 2022
In December 2018, the former United striker initially took over as coach from Jose Mourinho in Manchester. The following March, Solskjaer received a long-term contract that would have expired in the coming year.
In the past season, the team manager United led the Premier League to second place in the table and thus secured qualification for the Champions League. In addition, the northern English made it to the final in the Europa League, where they were only defeated by Villarreal in a close penalty shoot-out.
