Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has a lasting legacy at Manchester United as both a player and a manager.

Solskjaer will forever be remembered for that dramatic winner in the 1999 UEFA Champions League final.

His daughter, Karna Solskjaer, is now following his path into football.

The 21 year old striker had a breakout season with Manchester United Women’s Under-21s, winning the double and scoring 15 goals in 2021/22.

After making her first-team debut in an FA Cup match, she decided to pursue her career further by signing with AaFK Fortuna in Norway.

With a strong foundation in youth football, she is now making her mark in senior football.
