SPORTS AGENDA: Ole Gunnar Solskjaer gets a fright after being CHASED by autograph hunter... as Manchester United review the Red Devils boss' safety protocols

Manchester United are reviewing manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s travel arrangements after he was targeted in an extraordinary incident involving what has been described as an ‘overzealous autograph-hunter’.

The Norwegian, who makes time for the club’s supporters whenever possible, was leaving the city-centre Lowry Hotel, where United stay before home matches, when he was approached on the steps.

Having got to his own car, Solskjaer was then followed in another car by a frustrated punter, who got out at the first set of traffic lights and banged on the manager’s window.
