United sacked manager Jose Mourinho on Tuesday after the sixth-placed side made their worst start to a season for 28 years.

Solskjaer, who scored 126 goals in 366 appearances for United during an 11-year spell, is currently the boss of Norwegian top flight outfit Molde, but their season doesn't resume until March after the winter break.

The Norwegian hitman scored the winning goal in the 1999 Champions League final as United beat Bayern Munich 2-1 at Barcelona's Nou Camp stadium to clinch the Treble (Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League).

The 45-year-old also won six Premier League titles and two FA Cups with United.

Solskjaer has been in charge at Molde since 2015 and is currently in his second spell at the club after a brief unsuccessful spell at Cardiff City in 2014.
