Manchester United executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward has refused to speak on the club's appointment of a permanent manager.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has emerged as a serious candidate after losing just once since taking as interim manager in December.

But Woodward refused to be drawn on the topic.

"I'm not going to get into [that]," he said. "We communicated around December time around what we were doing, with Ole coming in, and what was happening.

"The next communication will be when we have something to announce regarding the manager. We're not going to give updates part way through."
