Solskjaer backed up his contract with three summer signings for Raphael Varane, Jadon Sancho, and Cristiano Ronaldo.

Ronaldo’s return to United was a surprise move no one anticipated.

“We significantly strengthened the squad over the summer, with the addition of Cristiano Ronaldo, Raphael Varane, Jadon Sancho, and Tom Heaton,” Woodward said in a statement.

“These signings have demonstrated our continued ability to attract some of the world’s best footballers to Old Trafford, and our firm commitment to helping Ole deliver success on the pitch.

“We were delighted to welcome back Cristiano to the club, along with Raphael, Jadon, and Tom, to further reinforce the progress that our first team has been making under Ole.”

While the board’s support is cardinal at this moment, he has confessed that he is aware his day at United are numbered give the dipping results.
