According to numerous sources, Manchester United would have to pay Ole Gunner Solskjaer a hefty amount of £7.5million if he was sacked at present— fulfilling his salary throughout the season.
Solskjaer is seriously under hot water after Liverpool's 5-0 thrashing on United at Old Trafford. Fans of the club have tirelessly called for Ole's departure. There are also rumors stating that some players in the locker room prefer to have a different manager.
A club like Manchester United sitting at seventh position surely doesn't resonate well with the fans. The squad looked hopeless, allowing Liverpool to score four goals within the first half easily— the worst part is, it happened in their own backyard.
Football fans expected a team competing for trophies, especially after signing players like Jadon Sancho, Raphael Varane, and Cristiano Ronaldo during this summer's transfer window.
Still, the club has had a mediocre season, narrowly winning against sub-par teams and struggling mightily versus different kinds of clubs both in the Premier League and Champions League.
Rumors are swirling, suggesting that Former Inter Milan manager Antonio Conte can take Solksjaer's job. Despite the vast clamor for the Norweigan's departure, Manchester United would have to pay a hefty fee, including the extra adjustments of a new manager.
Finding a new manager can be a viable option at this point. But is it something United would want to deal with this early in the season?
