Ole Gunnar Solskjær has been head coach of Molde on two occasions and finds the Eliteserien club the money and manages to convince the now 51-year-old coach, it could be a third time.
Molde landed in 5th place while Bodø/Glimt won the Eliteserien as usual.
Moe took over as head coach of Molde from Solskjaer ahead of the 2019 season, when Solskjaer went to Manchester United. Solskjaer delivered a second and third place finish in the Premier League before slowing down in the autumn of 2021.

It is with a heavy heart that we have given Erling this message. But in a preliminary overall assessment of the results in this year’s season, the conclusion is that we have not performed well enough. We want new forces to lead the team further in 2025, says chairman Odd Ivar Moen of Molde Football Club in a press release.
Åge Hareide, who himself handed over the baton to Ole Gunnar Solkjær in Molde, is in no doubt about who should take over from Moe.
“He has played at the club and been a coach here with success in the past. In addition, he has the huge from the Premier League,” Hareide says to NRK, and responds with an affirmative “yes!” that he launches Solskjaer as the new Molde coach.
“I would drive straight to Kristiansund and have a chat with Ole Gunnar (Solskjær) right away,” Hareide says to Romsdals Budstikke.
– I actually don’t know which other coaches in Norway can take over MFK as the club stands now. There are not many candidates who are both skilled enough, available on the market and want to work here, says Hareide, says the veteran coach further to the newspaper.
We agree with Hareide, it would be great for Molde to get a return for Ole Gunnar Solskjær.
