A new contract has been signed with manager Solskjaer, with a new deal worth £30 million. Now in charge until 2024 with a one-year right of first refusal to extend his contract, Solskjaer's salary reaches £200,000 a week, behind only De Gea, Pogba, Martial and Cavani in the team.

In the squad, Solskjaer's earnings, too, outstrip Portuguese newcomer Bruno Fernandes, who has yet to renew his contract and is currently earning as little as £180,000 a week at the maximum. Solskjaer's weekly wage is also higher than that of key players such as Luke Shaw and Maguire, and is now equal to that of love interest Marcus Rashford.

The move to extend Solskjaer's contract has been criticized by a number of soccer pundits due to the fact that the club is pressured to worry about Solskjaer being snapped up by other giants. According to talkSPORT Radio's Alex Crook - who holds a UEFA youth coaching certificate and has also worked for Dalian and the National Olympic Committee - even other

Would the club consider hiring him as the new manager? Crooks said I thought none of the family did. As far as I know, he also berates his players, and if you don't have that desire to win, it's impossible to get the kinds of accomplishments he got as a player. Being a good guy and positive in public is not a problem.
Crooks thought that Solskjaer's tactical level was the root of the problem: the problem was that his tactics were being scrutinized by his opponents. In the UEFA Cup final, his tactics were recognized, just as they had been in the semi-final against Sevilla the season before. Against Leicester City in the FA Cup, he was also targeted by Rodgers, who chose the completely wrong formation and was eventually screened out. Whenever it comes to the crucial moment of winning the title, Solskjaer's shortcomings are exposed. It's not because he's too nice, but because he's not a superb enough manager.
Solskjaer, on the other hand, has boasted that by playing well in the new season, he can lead the

To get to a position where you can compete for the league trophy, you need a good start to the season. That's our focus now. We need to make sure that we play well in the first game, in the first round of the competition, because last season," said the manager.

The situation was very bad. The team has gradually found its form, but we hope that by April and May of next year, we will be able to truly compete for the major championships.
