Harry Maguire reveals who he wants as coach at Manchester United.

Ruben Amorim’s departure has left the position of manager at Manchester United vacant once again, and speculation about who will take the reins at Old Trafford is increasing alarmingly. With names like Michael Carrick circulating as potential interim options, one figure in particular seems to have the backing of one of the most influential players in the squad: Harry Maguire. The former captain of the Red Devils has already made it clear, in previous statements, that he has a favorite in mind to replace Amorim: Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

In August, during a conversation on Rio Ferdinand’s podcast, Maguire revealed how much he valued his time under Solskjaer’s guidance. His statements leave no room for doubt about his desire for a new collaboration. Maguire recalled the 2020-21 season as one of the most comfortable periods of his career, praising how Solskjaer, along with Kieran McKenna and Michael Carrick, organized the team. “We couldn’t believe what happened. We finished third and second, and then we brought in Jadon Sancho, Rafael Varane, and Cristiano Ronaldo. We were ready to win the Premier League. And then, all of a sudden, everything fell apart. Losing Ole was disappointing. He did an incredible job,” Maguire stated.

“The first two seasons under Ole, Kieran, and Carrick were the ones that gave me the most satisfaction as a player. We were well organized, we had a tactical plan that worked, we could press and play well. In the third season, it just didn’t work,” added the central defender, making it clear that his preference for Solskjaer is not merely a matter of nostalgia, but rather a conviction based on his experiences on the pitch.

Now, the latest news suggests that Maguire’s wish may be about to come true. Solskjaer is on his way to a surprising return to Manchester United as interim manager until the end of the season. The club’s management has already consulted senior figures in the dressing room about the possible appointment, and both Harry Maguire and captain Bruno Fernandes have given their approval for the Norwegian’s return.

Although the final decision has not yet been made, the odds are increasing that Solskjaer could return to the managerial seat at Old Trafford, this time as interim. With the Norwegian icon eager for the challenge and the support of key players, it seems that Solskjaer is about to take the reins of one of the most iconic teams in world football once again. Anticipation is growing, and Manchester United fans are eagerly awaiting this exciting turnaround.
