Update on Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's Man Utd future after Leicester City defeat

Manchester United are not planning on sacking Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, despite the Red Devils' recent poor run of form, which culminated in the disappointing 4-2 defeat to Leicester City on Saturday afternoon.

The pressure is building on the Norwegian coach, and supporters' frustrations reached new heights upon shipping four at the King Power Stadium, subsequently ending their record-breaking 29-game unbeaten streak away from home.

But Solskjaer's job remains safe for the time being, as The Athletic reports that the club's owners have no intention of sacking their manager ahead of a tricky run of fixtures.

Man Utd face Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester City, Chelsea and Arsenal all before the end of November, meaning a bad set of results in those clashes could see the Premier League giants lose further ground in the title race.

They currently sit fifth in the league table, one point outside of the top four, and in danger of falling even further behind current leaders Chelsea, who opened up a five-point gap over the Red Devils with a 1-0 win over Brentford.
