Man Utd chief Woodward sticking to his guns over Solskjaer appointment

The Old Trafford supremo has refused to shed further light on who will succeed Jose Mourinho on a permanent basis

Manchester United executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward says there will be no updates on the search for a new permanent manager while the season is ongoing.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has enjoyed a strong run since taking over as caretaker boss following Jose Mourinho's dismissal in December, winning 10 and drawing one of his 11 domestic games in charge.

His unbeaten start came to an end in a 2-0 Champions League defeat to Paris Saint-Germain at Old Trafford on Tuesday, but Solskjaer remains a firm candidate to be given the job on a full-time basis.
