Former Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has returned to the club’s training ground for the first time since suffering a brain haemorrhage.
Ferguson, 77, met former striker and current caretaker manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer at Carrington on Saturday.
The Scot did not attend any training sessions during David Moyes and Louis van Gaal’s managerial reigns, but was invited back by Jose Mourinho.
“He enjoyed his time at the training ground,” said Solskjaer.
“He had a few nice chats with the staff and he encouraged us.”
United have won all three Premier League games since Solskjaer, 45, was appointed until the end of the season following Mourinho’s sacking on 18 December.
Mike Phelan, Ferguson’s former assistant, has returned to the backroom team, while Michael Carrick, a player Ferguson signed in 2006, remains on the coaching staff.
