Ole Gunnar Solskjaer denies Blackburn Rovers contact

Molde boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer denies that he has been contacted about the Blackburn Rovers managerial post.

The former Manchester United striker, who is close to securing back-to-back league titles for Molde, has been strongly linked with the Blackburn post following Steve Kean's resignation.

However, he told reporters: "It's the same as always - speculation. We have gone up this path before and it is only speculation.

"It will happen when it happens, that I have to pick up the phone to [Molde owner] Kjell Inge Rokke regarding a job offer, but I have not spoken to Blackburn as yet. I can not say any more about Blackburn now."

Solskjaer, 39, was also linked with the Aston Villa post in the summer.
