Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has confirmed Antonio Valencia as captain of Manchester United.
The caretaker manager confirmed the Ecuadorian as captain despite him not being a regular player this season with some reports suggesting a fall-out with sacked manager, Jose Mourinho.
Solskjaer said:
“He’s (Valencia) the captain. When he’s properly fit and playing he’ll wear the armband,” Solskjaer said during his presser ahead of their clash against Bournemouth.
“He’s going through a couple of tough sessions now to get him ready for the tough period coming up. There aren’t many better right-backs going forward with his abilities.”
“When he’s properly fit and playing, he’ll wear the armband.”
