Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has confirmed he has been offered the chance to return to the dugout for the first time since he was sacked by Manchester United.<\/p>\n

Manchester United news, exclusives and analysis<\/p>\n

The United icon has been out of work since getting axed by the Red Devils nearly two years ago.<\/p>\n

He has been barely linked with any managerial jobs since then, though he did emerge as a surprise contender to take the reins at Leicester over the summer, but in the end former Manchester City assistant Enzo Maresca got the job.<\/p>\n

But in recent times, it has been rumoured that the former striker has been offered the job of managing the\u00a0Norway women\u2019s national football team.<\/p>\n

The position has been vacant since the country suffered an early exit at the Women\u2019s World Cup over the summer, with the team having endured tough times recently, including a humiliating 8-0 defeat to England at Euro 2022.<\/p>\n

However, Solskjaer will not be the person to revive their fortunes, as the 50-year-old claims he has already turned down the oppurtunity.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Norwegian outlet\u00a0NRK, he said: \u2018Yes, I have spoken to the association about the job as national coach \u2013 of course I have it.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u2018They have asked. But I\u2019m not ready for that yet.\u2019<\/p>\n

Solskjaer won 67 caps for Norway during his playing career, scoring 23 goals.<\/p>\n

The \u2018Baby-faced assassin\u2019 will forever be a United hero, having scored 126 goals in 366 appearances, including the winning strike in the 1999 Champions League final, which sealed the club\u2019s historic treble win.<\/p>\n

He returned to the side as an interim manager in 2018 following the dismissal of Jose Mourinho and after a great run of results was handed the job on a full-time basis.<\/p>\n

Though the club had some great moments under his tenure, including reaching the Europa League final and finishing second in the Premier League in 2021, his reign was ultimately a failure and he was sacked in November 2021 after a run of just one win in seven games.<\/p>\n

Prior to United, the Norwegian had spells in charge of Molde and Cardiff.<\/p>\n
