Manchester United legendary striker Ole Gunnar Solksjaer was seen traveling with the Manchester United fans ahead of the must-win match against Galatasaray in the Champions League.

The image was revealed on Twitter, showing the former manager holding a flag that reads "MUFC 20LEGEND, Kristiansund” with two other fans.

The 20 on the flag represents the number the striker wore while he was playing for the Red Devils.

The Kristiansund on the flag was because the retired player was born in a small village in Norway which goes by the aforementioned name.

While he was playing for Manchester United, the Norwegian scored 126 goals in all competitions.

Solksjaer was famously known for scoring the final goal of the match against Bayern Munich in the 1999 Champions League final.

That was Solksjaer's biggest goal before his retirement.

The goal made Manchester United the first English team to win the treble in a season.

The Baby Assasian, as famously called by the Manchester United spectators, had a spell as the club manager for four years without winning a single trophy.

Despite the signing of big-name players by Manchester United for the manager in 2021, he got sacked after a series of poor results, including the club losing a match at Old Trafford to their biggest rival, Liverpool.

Despite getting sacked by the club board, Solksjaer remains a famous name at the club, and the fans continue to sing his name.

Why Manchester United Must Defeat Galatasaray to Proceed to the Next Round of the Champions League

Traveling to Turkey to win matches is one of the most difficult things to do.

The atmosphere and the fans are the most difficult things to overcome against Galatasaray.

However, Bayern Munich went there, and they got all three points.

It is now left for the Manchester United team to also go there and get the three points to move to second in the Champions League Group A.

Currently, Manchester United are in last place in the group with three points from four matches.

Erik Ten Hag wants to get the result for the Manchester United fans, who still have hope they are going to qualify for the next round.

A defeat will put his Manchester United managerial career in jeopardy.

This is because rumours are circulating that Manchester United are speaking to Carlo Ancelotti in the hope of taking him away from Real Madrid next season.

However, currently, Manchester United are the most in-form team in the Premier League, with five wins from six, coupled with a good style of play and composure.
