Erik ten Hag makes U-turn on Ole Gunnar Solskjaer signing who was told to leave Man Utd

Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag appears to have softened his stance on an Ole Gunnar Solskjaer signing that seemed to have no future at Old Trafford under the Dutchman.

The 21-year-old first arrived at the club back in 2020, while Solskjaer was still in charge after the Norwegian received a tip-off over Pellistri's ability from fellow former United striker Diego Forlan. However, it was hardly a dream start for the winger, who took just under two-and-a-half years to make his Red Devils debut.
