Solskjaer set for shock United return

OLE Gunnar Solskjaer is set to make a comeback in Manchester United’s reserve-team against Liverpool on Monday.

The Norwegian, scorer of the goal which won United the Champions League in 1999, has not made a first-team appearance for the Red Devils since coming on as a substitute in the 2003 FA Cup final win over Millwall.

Earlier this week, United boss Alex Ferguson played down Solskjaer’s chances of a return, even hinting the 32-year-old was struggling to win his battle with a knee injury.
