Solskjaer is now expected to receive a testimonial at Old Trafford next year, as part of the club’s pre-season programme.

United undertake a three-match to South Africa next summer and the Solskjaer game would be slotted in upon the players’ return.

No date, or opposition, has yet been confirmed, although Bayern Munich could be approached to play.

Solskjaer famously scored an injury-time winner against the German side to secure United the 1999 UEFA Champions League trophy in Barcelona.

I would love to see this game somehow!
