Manchester United have reportedly narrowed their search for a new permanent coach down to six manne.
The Red Devils fired Jose Mourinho last month and gave Ole Gunnar Solsjkaer the reins until the end of the season.
And after leading the team to four wins in four matches, the former United striker is now one of the coaches on the shortlist, according to the Sun.
Solskjaer has brought back an attacking style to the Old Trafford giants, with the side scoring 12 goals.
The other names are Mauricio Pochettino, Zinedine Zidane, Laurent Blanc, Julian Nagelsmann and Marco Rose.

Boss of Premier League rivals Tottenham, Pochettino has been one of the leading names since Jose’s sacking after reportedly being snubbed by the Argentinian back in 2016.
