Ralf Rangnick may finally reunite with midfielder Amadou Haidara at Manchester United after the club missed out on one of their other transfer targets on Wednesday, Marcelo Brozovic.
The German manager was not able to sign any players in the January transfer window as the higher powers at Red Devils wanted to conserve their budget for when they appoint his long-term successor in the summer. United did not want any players arriving that may find themselves surplus to requirements next season in a new system.
Therefore, despite Paul Pogba being out of contract at the end of the season and Donny van de Beek pushing for a loan move, Rangnick wasn’t able to sign a midfielder. It was reported that the manager was pushing for Haidara of RB Leipzig, but United stood firm and Rangnick was made to head into the second half of the campaign with the same crop of players.
