Paul Scholes will take temporary charge of Salford City, the club he co-owns with the Class of 92, after current manager Graham Alexander was sacked.
But former England and Manchester United midfielder, a co-owner of the club with Gary and Phil Neville, Ryan Giggs and Nicky Butt, will not be a long-term appointment, with a new coach expected to be appointed later this month.
But Scholes will be in charge of training at the League 2 club, who drew 2-2 with Tranmere on Saturday, and will be on the bench at Port Vale on Saturday.
