On Friday they finally pulled off the signing of Jadon Sancho, and now Manchester United have announced another bit of good news.
Manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has signed an extension to his contract, which will keep him at Old Trafford until at least 2024.
“Everyone knows the feeling I have for this club, and I am delighted to have signed this new contract,” Solskjaer told the club’s official website.
“It is an exciting time for Manchester United, we have built a squad with a good balance of youth and experienced players that are hungry for success.
“I have a fantastic coaching team around me, and we are all ready to take that next step on our journey. Manchester United wants to be winning the biggest and best trophies and that’s what we are all striving for. We have improved, both on and off the pitch, and that will continue over the coming seasons.
A legendary former United player, Solskjaer took the managerial reins on an interim basis following José Mourinho’s departure in December 2018.
In March 2019 he was given the job on a permanent basis, and he has since taken charge of 132 matches with a points-per-match record of 1.84.
