Man United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is reportedly set to be offered a new three-year contract worth 30 million pounds at the end of the season.

UK sources say the Norwegian has done enough to convince the board of directors to keep him on…with the club currently second in the EPL table, and thru to the quarterfinals of the Europa League.

According to insiders, the offer will remain even if United finish the season empty-handed or lower than second in the league.

This, following the BAM’s decision to stick with young players instead of seniors for the SEA Games…despite Zii Jia’s recent All England victory.
