LONDON: Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has no qualms about working for Cardiff City owner Vincent Tan, he said after being appointed as the Premier League strugglers’ new manager yesterday.
The 40-year-old former Manchester United striker has signed a rolling contract with the south Wales club and succeeds Malky Mackay, who was sacked on December 27 after his relationship with Tan broke down.
Tan sacked Mackay’s head of recruitment, Iain Moody, in October and his decision to part company with Mackay sparked angry protests from some Cardiff fans.
The Malaysian also created controversy in 2012 when he forced Cardiff to change their traditional blue colours to red, but Solskjaer described reports that former United manager Alex Ferguson had warned him not to take the job as “absolute nonsense”.AFP
