Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has to appoint a new Manchester United captain this summer with previous skipper Antonio Valencia departing Old Trafford at the end of the season.Valencia rarely featured for United in his final campaign with the club, meaning the armband was instead worn by vice-captain Ashley Young who spent the majority of the season on the pitch.Young wore the armband more often than not in 2018/19Getty Images - Getty2
Young wore the armband more often than not in 2018/19
Young was a trusted servant of Jose Mourinho, and Solskjaer kept faith in the 33-year-old when appointed caretaker manager back in December.He played all but three of United’s Premier League matches under the Norwegian, and was handed a one-year contract extension earlier this year to keep him at Old Trafford until June 2020.Supporters were not overly pleased with the new deal, and many are frustrated a club of United’s stature continue to play an ageing converted winger at full-back – something an elite club shouldnot be doing. And fans are going to be angered when they learn Young is favourite to be handed the Man United captaincy on a permanent basis.Bookmakers AmericanGambler.com have cut the odds of Young being handed the armband to just 1/4, despite various reports claiming Paul Pogba could be named captain in a bid to keep him at Old Trafford amid interest from Real Madrid.
