Sir Alex Ferguson hopes former striker Ole Gunnar Solskjaer does not rush back to English football.
The 38-year old has been written into Norwegian football folklore after guiding Molde to their first league title in their 100-year history and has attracted interest from some clubs in England.
Ferguson expects him to one day head back to coach at the top level but for now feels it wise to remain with Molde and perfect his managerial craft.
"It is possible (he could return as boss in England)," said Ferguson. "It just depends when.
"I don't think he should rush into it because experience is good and the experience he has got at Molde is a very good one.
"He comes from the area. His wife and family are all back home there.
"He has won the championship and there is no need to hurry.
"The time will come and the timing will be important but he is easily capable of coming into English football."
He added: “My knowledge of Ole as a student of the game is quite clear; every game he played and every training session he took part in he always wrote it all down.
"That tells you his dedication to learn the game and also his attention to meticulous detail.
"That gives him a great start because you need dedication and sacrifice to go into management these days.
"He was a great player and a very nice person. Players will respond to him."
