Kieran McKenna explains Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Michael Carrick's visit to Ipswich Town fixture

Former Manchester United assistant manager Kieran McKenna has spoken about Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Michael Carrick's support of his new club Ipswich Town.

McKenna joined the Suffolk club back in December from United having spent three years as an assistant to Jose Mourinho and Ralf Rangnick as well as Solskjaer and Carrick.

Before their 1-0 victory at Doncaster Rovers, the former United pair met the Ipswich squad and McKenna told the club's website about the visit.

"It was very nice," he explained. "As I said after the game, they're two good friends, two former colleagues, and two very knowledgeable, experienced and successful football men.

"It was good to have their support on Tuesday. It’s nice to know that they are following all of the games and supporting Ipswich now; wanting us to win and do well.

"It was great for them to come to the hotel before the game to meet some of the players and get around the staff.

"It was a nice boost for us on Tuesday and hopefully we can get them down to Portman Road at some stage as well."
