Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has raised alarm on why it was wrong decision to sell midfielder Scott McTominay last summer.
Former Manchester United coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has slammed the decision made by the club to let go of one of their most important players last summer.
The former striker maintained that Scott McTominay was a key player for the club and part of the reason is that the Scotland international has gone on to enjoy a stellar season with title-chasing Napoli as United suffered yet another unacceptable defeat against Brentford on Sunday.

Mikel Arteta Confirms Surprise Arsenal Injury Boost Ahead of Bournemouth & PSG Clashes
Mikel Arteta confirms Kai Havertz may return this season, boosting Arsenal ahead of crucial Bournemouth and PSG matches.
Fred, often alongside the Scot, played 213 times for United between 2018 and 2023 before departing for Turkey and Fenerbahce, where he now played under former United boss Jose Mourinho - the side Solskjaer and Besiktas faced last weekend.
He, though, too never really won over the majority of fans at Old Trafford, with the likes of Manuel Ugarte, Casemiro and Bruno Fernandes often lining up in deeper midfield roles in the current team.
Fernandes is one of the players who has reached out to Solskjaer since he left United, it has been revealed, with the ex-United boss praising the skipper's leadership - despite opting for Harry Maguire to be his captain instead during his own reign.
Solskjaer has led Besiktas to third in the Turkish Super Lig table. He has led his side in 13 league matches since taking over in January, winning seven of them.
