Antonio Conte will insist on Man Utd signing transformative player if he replaces Ole

Antonio Conte remains a serious option for Manchester United should they axe Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, but the Italian will demand he brings one of his most trusted players along with him if he is offered the job, claims a report.

Solskjaer is under intense pressure at Manchester United after a run of four Premier League games returned just a solitary point. The culmination was Sunday’s 5-0 reverse at Old Trafford against Liverpool. The Norwegian remains in the hot-seat with United’s owners said to be undecided on the best course of action.

Solskjaer took charge of United’s training session as usual at Carrington on Tuesday. However, Sir Alex Ferguson was there too, but, according to Fabrizio Romano “the feeling around the staff is the same: he’s staying”.

That may well change of the course of the next few weeks if the Glazers see more damaging results. And with Tottenham, Atalanta and Man City to come before the international break, the pressure is on Solskjaer.

He’s only looking forward though, as he told LMA chief executive Richard Bevan.
