In his first interview with the club, he said: “I’ll always be grateful to Dortmund for giving me the opportunity to play first-team football, although I always knew that I would return to England one day. The chance to join Manchester United is a dream come true and I just cannot wait to perform in the Premier League. This is a young and exciting squad and I know, together, we can develop into something special to bring the success that the fans deserve. I am looking forward to working with the Manager and his coaching team to further develop my game.”

Solksjaer will be pleased to get his marque signing. He was been the standout player for Borussia Dortmund. His 50 goals and 64 assists already speak about his record.
Solkjaer was in need of a creative playmaker, a pacy winger who can contribute and freeze the opposition defenders with his clever runs. Manchester United has handed the number 25 shirt to Jadon Sancho. The shirt was worn by Antonio Valencia and quite recently Odion Ighalo.
