Ole Gunnar Solskjaer spotted in stands at PSG vs Dortmund as Man Utd fans joke he is visiting his ‘playground’
Fans were loving it on social media as they remembered some beautiful history
OLE GUNNAR SOLSKJAER was spotted in the stands during Paris Saint-Germain vs Borussia Dortmund.
The former Manchester United boss was in attendance for Tuesday’s Champions League semi-final second leg.
Solskjaer watched on at the Parc des Princes as Dortmund reached June’s final at Wembley Stadium.
Mats Hummels’ goal sealed a 1-0 win on the night and a 2-0 aggregate victory for the German giants.
They will now face either Bayern Munich or Real Madrid in the final next month.
Meanwhile, Solskjaer was returning to the scene of a famous triumph from his tenure as United manager.
The Red Devils knocked PSG out of the Champions League round of 16 back in 2019.
With Solskjaer still caretaker boss after replacing Jose Mourinho, United overturned a 2-0 first leg deficit in the French capital.
Marcus Rashford’s stoppage time penalty sealed a 3-1 second leg win and progression on away goals after a brace from Romelu Lukaku.
Supporters were quick to reference the result on social media after spotting Solskjaer in the crowd.

Another added: “Remember that night.”
A third supporter also commented: “Watching the club he owns of course.”
Meanwhile, one more said: “Bro went to his backyard real quick.”
Solskjaer was later appointed permanent manager at Old Trafford, remaining in the role until November 2021.
Pundits' verdict on Ten Hag's future
Where do the pundits stand on Erik ten Hag's Manchester United future?
Michael Owen – He has to go
“He cannot, simply cannot, manage this team next season. He’s not good enough.”
Teddy Sheringham – Might stay if he wins Cup but should go
“If United win the FA Cup, he could stay. But, for me, changes are needed and United need to get it done sooner than later.”
Jamie Carragher – Sacked
“I don’t see how Erik ten Hag stays. It’s just performance after performance.”
Gary Neville – Stay if he wins the FA Cup
“To sack a manager who’s won two trophies in his first two seasons at the club I think would be extreme.”
Louis Saha – On the fence
“I don’t see it as clearly but they need changes from the players but they need changes from him as well.”
Alan Shearer – Sacked
“I believe the future of the Man Utd manager is already determined. Even if they win the FA Cup I think he’s gone.”
The Norwegian achieved a second place finish in the Premier League and reached the Europa League final in his final full season in charge.
Despite his success with United, he has not had a senior managerial job since leaving the club.
Solskjaer has been working in a role with Uefa since last year, though.
