Noah Solskjær (20) has signed a professional contract with the first division (Eliteserien) club Kristiansund (KBK), where he has been an academy player since 2014.

Noah Solskjær is the eldest son of Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjær. He has played just over five minutes for KBK in a training match against Man U. last summer, beyond that he has only played for the club’s second team and recruiting team.

“Noah has trained regularly with KBK’s first team since the summer of 2019, and made his debut for the first team in a training match in the summer of the same year and has in training this summer shown signs that he can develop further and defend a place on our elite squad,” KBK writes on its website.

A Midfielder, Solskjær’s professional contract is for one year.

– I look forward to being part of this team. It is a very nice group of players. It will be fun to train with the boys every day, and I hope to play some matches, says the 20-year-old.
