Eidur Gudjohnsen and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer meet again.

On Friday, Gudjohnsen, 37, put pen to paper on a two-year contract with FK Molde, whose Europa League campaign will resume Wednesday when the Norwegian club visits Sevilla in the round of 32.

Of course, Gudjohnsen, who last took the pitch at Shijiazhuang Ever Bright of the Chinese Super League, possesses a resume that includes the likes of PSV Eindhoven, Bolton Wanderers, Chelsea, Barcelona, AS Monaco, Tottenham Hotspur, and Stoke City among other clubs.

By virtue of his time in the Premier League, Gudjohnsen will be playing under a familiar face, as Solskjaer, a god at Manchester United, was appointed as Molde's manager in October.
