\n Appearing on The Good, The Bad & The Football podcast, the England and United hero revealed that he knew someone who had spoken to the hierarchy of the Scottish Premiership giants about replacing Russell Martin.\n<\/p>\n
\n And that name seems to be Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.\n<\/p>\n
\n The Champions League<\/a>-winning goal hero last managed earlier this year in a short stint with Besiktas, but previously was in charge of United between 2018 and 2021.\n<\/p>\n \n Danny Rohl is the frontrunner with the bookies as things stand following Steven Gerrard<\/a>‘s withdrawal from the process. Kevin Muscat is also under consideration.\n<\/p>\n \n Scholes’ revelation goes to show that Andrew Cavenagh<\/a> and Paraag Marathe<\/a> are working on other options, not widely touted, too.\n<\/p>\n \n He said: “I was actually with a lad the other night who told me he was actually going to meet Rangers. I’m not sure if he did but his name’s not been mentioned.\n<\/p>\n \n “I don’t think he was going for it. They contacted him and he was going to meet him in London the day after.”\n<\/p>\n \n Nicky Butt added: “Oh, I know who you mean.”\n<\/p>\n \n Refusing to name Solskjaer, host Paddy McGuinness asked if it was a current manager, as he sought a clue. Scholes bluntly replied: “No.”\n<\/p>\n \n Then asked if the unnamed figure had previously managed Man United, Scholes added: “No comment. But funnily enough, his name’s not been mentioned.”\n<\/p>\n \n Butt said:”[It’s] Ole you are talking about, aren’t you?”\n<\/p>\n \n With a smirk across his face, Scholes added: “No comment.”\n<\/p>\n
