Manchester United could appoint Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as their permanent manager this week, according to reports.
The Norwegian has led United to within two points of fourth placed Arsenal in the Premier League, as well as the Champions League quarter-finals.
And he is the red-hot favourite to land the job on a full-time basis after winning 14 of his 19 games as caretaker since replacing the sacked Jose Mourinho in December.
The Daily Mail report United are close to giving Solskjaer a permanent contract, moving their original plans to announce a decision at the end of the season forward.
