Former Man United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer spotted at Premier League game amid manager sack fear
Former Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has been spotted at Molineux to watch Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Ipswich Town in the Premier League.
Solskjaer has been out of the technical area since leaving United in November 2021. The Norwegian managed 168 games during his time at Trafford before taking up a position at UEFA as Technical Observer.
Since the start of the season, Solskjaer's name has surfaced whenever managers have been under pressure. When Erik ten Hag was sacked in November, he was briefly linked with a return prior to Ruben Amorim's appointment.

He was also mentioned by the bookmakers as a possible replacement for Steve Cooper at Leicester City before Ruud van Nistelrooy arrived. Now, with Gary O'Neil the bookies' favourite to be the next Premier League manager to be sacked at Wolves, Solskjaer has been spotted in the Black Country.
The Wanderers take on Ipswich this afternoon in what is a six-pointer at the bottom of the table. Despite receiving the backing from owner Jeff Shi, pressure remains on O'Neil by supporters.
Solskjaer's attendance at Molineux is not known, although it's likely that he is watching former United colleague Kieran McKenna, who manages Ipswich. However, Wolves fans have speculated that the former United striker could be one of the names in line to replace O'Neil.
