He wrote:
“He’s been my striker when I first came to Old Trafford and he’s been my coach since I came back to Man. United.

“But most of all, Ole is an outstanding human being.

“I wish him the best in whatever his life has reserved for him. Good luck, my friend! You deserve it!”

Solksjaer has been replaced with assistant manager, Michael Carrick who will serve as interim until another manager is appointed.

Carrick first game will be against Villarreal in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday.
