Ole Gunnar Solskjaer linked to vacant manager post at Blackburn Rovers

Former Manchester United player Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has been linked to the vacant manager's job at Blackburn Rovers.

The 39-year-old is currently manager at Norwegian champions Molde, but his representatives have expressed an interest in the Ewood Park role.

Solskjaer led Molde to their first league title in 100 years in his first year in charge.

His is one of a number of names being tipped to take the post, with others including Alan Shearer, Tim Sherwood and Henrik Larsson.

Steve Kean resigned as Blackburn boss last week.
