Woodward gives Solskjaer permanent Man Utd job

This is the swanky Italian restaurant where Ole Gunnar Solskjaer shook hands with Ed Woodward on becoming Manchester United’s new permanent manager.

SunSport broke the news last week that interim boss Solskjaer had landed the job, although the club may

not announce it until the summer.

And we can also reveal the agreement was sealed during a three-hour dinner at the Cibo eaterie in Hale, Cheshire.

During the meal, United executive vice-chairman Woodward shook the Norwegian by the hand and beamed ‘Here’s to a long and successful relationship together’.

The pair had arrived before 7.30pm on the evening of February 6, the day of the Munich Air Disaster memorial.
