Mail Online further divulged the fan could have been an autograph hunter who wanted nothing but Ole's sign. The legendary striker often makes time to sign supporters' autos.

The incident was reported in the wake of the Red Devils' 2-1 hard-fought win over a stubborn Brighton side on the evening of Sunday, April 4, at Old Trafford.

The Manchester side had to come from a goal down to secure their victory, with Marcus Rashford and Mason Greenwood combining to steer the team to a crucial win.

Brighton took a deserved lead just 13 minutes after the kickoff through Danny Welbeck, a former United academy graduate and player.

Sources reveal that the striker was able to play during the fixture briefly before he was eventually substituted.
