Ole Gunnar Solskjaer emerges as shock contender to follow Scott Parker at Club Brugge as crisis club eye ex-Man Utd boss
OLE GUNNAR SOLSKJAER is a shock contender for the Club Brugge job, reports claim.
The 50-year-old was sacked by Manchester United in November 2021.
MEN report Solskjaer is currently a youth team manager at hometown club Kristiansund BK in Norway.
But he could reportedly follow in the footsteps of Scott Parker by taking a job with Belgian outfit Club Brugge.
Solskjaer is on the club’s shortlist, according to journalist Sacha Tavolieri.
The club are still on the lookout for a replacement after sacking Parker last month.
Parker, 42, was sacked in March after winning just two out of his 12 games in charge.
Bruge, currently fifth in the Belgian Pro League, are also said to be interested in former Celtic boss Ronny Deila.
The Norwegian is currently manager at Standard Liege.
Dino Toppmoller, who was Julian Nagelsmann’s assistant at Bayern Munich, is another on Brugge’s shortlist.

The 42-year-old was sacked by Bayern alongside Nagelsmann last month.
But Solskjaer is also a shock candidate for the Brugge role.
The Old Trafford legend was linked with the Everton job in January before Sean Dyche took over at Goodison Park.
He was named permanent Red Devils manager in 2019 following a successful spell as caretaker boss, but was sacked in 2021 and replaced by interim gaffer Ralf Rangnick.
