Man Utd boss Solskjaer: Greenwood capable of playing as No10

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says it's too soon to lock Mason Greenwood into a set position.

Greenwood signed a new deal this week to 2025 and spoke today ahead of their Europa League clash with Real Sociedad.

Solskjaer also remarked: "I think Mason was a bit shy there, he can play No.10 too! I think we just have to give him time to find his final position. He is a forward who moves really well along the line. Sometimes you don't want to be right in the mix, so I think we have found he can play both really.

“In and around the goal - we need him there."

On Real Sociedad, he added: “You've got to be very, very good against them. Probably the hardest team we could get at this stage. Still in the hunt for Champions League.

“We have to play at a high level to get a result."
