Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has no problem with a short turnaround for next season.

United's run to the semi-finals in Cologne – they face Sevilla at the RheinEnergie Stadion on Sunday – means they will kick off the new Premier League season later than the scheduled start date of September 12.

"I can't see a reason why we're complaining," said Solskjaer. "We've just got to make the most of it and look after the players. Hopefully the national team coaches look after them too.

"There's no point me worrying about it. The authorities will give us as much rest as they can. We have 30 days at least before we start. That means we can give them a two-week holiday and two weeks to prepare for first game.

"I have absolutely no concerns about next season at the moment. We have a good possibility to finish the season. This is the only way we could have finished and for the supporters to have a game on telly every day has been very important.

"You look forward to the Champions League and Europa League games, and that has been helpful.

"We have to use it as preparation for this tournament, but it's almost a pre-season for next season.

"We have to get going again. We can't complain because this is the world we're in now."
