However, if Man Utd maintains his current performance, he could have a job again in the near future if the latest reports are to be believed.
The Red Devils won one and lost two of their first Premier League games this season and their latest loss is looming. in the form of a 6-1 humiliation at home to Tottenham on Sunday.
And the Daily star claims Solskjaer is already under pressure with his ‘troubled reign in jeopardy’ after the loss to Spurs.
Club bosses are “demanding a serious improvement in Solskjaer’s results” and “have polled Mauricio Pochettino about his replacement” for the former Manchester United striker.
Pochettino is “eager to make United his next job as he looks to return to management” but Woodward “is not prepared to fire the Norwegian in the current international break.”
Woodward “could unravel Solskjaer’s turbulent reign” after the international break unless he sees a dramatic rebound in results.
The Man Utd executive vice president is a “huge fan” of Pochettino and the Argentine coach “recognizes that he is up to the challenge” of taking the Red Devils to the top again.
the Daily star adds that “Woodward will be reluctant to fire Solskjaer due to the fact that he is part of the club’s history and maintains a strong relationship with some of their players.”
However, he might “have no other choice” if Solskjaer and his team continue to produce poor results and performances.
