Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, the former Manchester United coach, and his family move into this gorgeous Cheshire home, which he started building in 2007.

For the majority of his career with the Red Devils, the icon from United called Bramhall in Stockport home with his wife Silje and their kids.

They did, however, buy another property on the outskirts of Alderley Edge, demolishing a cottage and constructing a Scandinavian-style “eco mansion”.

When his career at the club ended, his family relocated to Norway, where he became the coach of Molde before selling the property.

The stunning property began being built in 2007

Ole tried to sell the home in 2016 but could not find a buyer

In total, the home is set on 3.4 acres of land

As a result the home has been rented out, reportedly to Liverpool defender Virgil Van Dijk.

But today Solskjaer, speaking to MUTV, appeared to confirm he would be returning to live in the property with wife.

“We have really enjoyed the last eight years living in Norway,” he said.

“Of course it’s going to be a change for them, but we’re looking forward to it I’ve got to say.

“The six months that we agreed on, as a family that we’d do it separate because there was not any or use or need to move them over – that’s gone now.

“Now we move in together and we built a house – or I started it – in 2007 and finally in 2019 we can move into it.

“That’s long planning!”

When listed for sale, the home was described by estate agents in a brochure.

The listing described a reception hallway, principal drawing room, side hallway, cloakroom, media room and living kitchen.

It also describes the utility room, storage room, a gym, five bedrooms, a study area and a garage.

The property also has a pool room, which is 15m x 7m.

Solskjaer is expected to move into the property in six months time.
