Ole Gunner Solskjear allegedly has no plans to step down as Manchester United manager despite the ongoing speculation surrounding his future at Old Trafford.

The Norwegian survived the international break without losing his job, and he will lead the Red Devils into Saturday’s Premier League clash with Watford at Vicarage Road.

According to the report, Solskjaer is confident that he can oversee a change in fortunes and will not walk away from his position in Manchester.

The report claims that a number of first-team players ‘are growing disillusioned with his tactics and team selection’, but the 48-year-old remains in a positive mindset ahead of Saturday’s clash with Watford.

Manchester United has lost three of their last four matches in the Premier League, which has left them in the sixth position in the table five points behind fourth-placed Liverpool.

Team Nigeria’s boxing contingent has officially departs the shores of the country for Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, ahead of the 6th edition of the Islamic Solidarity Games, taking place from November 7 to 21, 2025. 


The team forms a vital part of Nigeria’s contingent at the multi-sport event, which gathers athletes from across over 55 nations globally. Nigeria’s participation reflects the nation’s commitment to expanding its global sporting profile and using sport as a tool for unity, national pride, and youth development.


Chief de Mission, Director General of the National Sports Commission (NSC), Hon. Bukola Olopade, described the Riyadh Games as a “crucial aspect of Nigeria’s strategic sports development plan,” emphasizing that the event serves as both a test of preparation and a pathway toward greater international success, including at the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles.

He reaffirmed the NSC’s commitment to ensuring that Nigerian athletes receive the necessary support to excel on global platforms.


“This is more than just another international competition; it is a vital stepping-stone for our athletes toward Olympian ambitions,” Hon. Bukola Olopade said ahead of the team’s departure.

“Our team is prepared, focused, and hungry for success. We carry the hopes of the nation with us to Riyadh,” Hon. Olopade added.
Nigeria has maintained a strong presence at the Games since the inaugural edition in 2005. Over the years, the country’s athletes have recorded success across various sporting categories.


The contingent is led by experienced coaches and supported by technical staff dedicated to achieving peak performance levels.


As the competition gets set to begin in Riyadh, all eyes will be on the Nigerian contingent to deliver a performance that reinforces the country’s reputation as one of Africa’s leading sporting nations.
