Ole Gunnar Solskjaer insists Michael Carrick is the right man for Manchester United and reveals his own offer to return

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, the former Manchester United manager, has reaffirmed his belief that Michael Carrick remains the ideal leader for the club despite a nine-game winless streak that has relegated them to 17th place in the Premier League. Solskjaer, who previously worked with Carrick at Old Trafford and has since appointed him as caretaker manager following Ruben Amorim's dismissal, remains confident in Carrick's abilities.

Carrick, who served as Solskjaer's assistant during his tenure, has been praised for his understanding of the club, fans, and the necessary measures for progress. Solskjaer had previously expressed his willingness to step in and offer support to Carrick should the club's management deem it necessary.
