Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer admits he would love to see Leeds United return to the Premier League

Leeds United will clash with fierce rivals Manchester United for the first time since 2011 when both sides meet in a pre-season friendly in Perth on Wednesday.

Both sides last met during an League Cup clash eight seasons, with the Red Devils running out 3-0 winners.

Since Leeds’ relegation from the Premier League in 2004, the two teams have only played against one another twice, but the manager of the Old Trafford outfit Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is hoping the meetings between them can be more regular going forward, admitting he would love the Elland Road outfit to return to the Premier League soon.
