Manchester United manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, has said Barcelona will win the Champions League this season.
Solskjaer’s United were bundled out by Barca in the quarter-finals, after Lionel Messi’s brace secured a 3-0 second-leg victory on Tuesday.
Philippe Coutinho’s long-range stunner following the interval sealed a 4-0 aggregate success and kept their treble hopes alive.
Asked about Barca’s Champions League chances ahead of a semi-final against either Liverpool or Porto, Solskjaer told reporters: “I think Barcelona will win yeah.
“With the quality they have in the front three. They’ve got [Ousmane] Dembele and Malcom, players there to put on.
“I wouldn’t bet against them, even though I don’t bet.
“But for me they will be favourites to win the whole tournament.”
