Ralf Rangnick could walk away from his contracted consultancy role at Manchester United after being offered the Austrian national team job, according to reports.
The 63-year-old was named as the Red Devils interim boss at the end of last year, tasked with picking up the pieces from the end of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer ’s reign. Rangnick initially stated he could stay on beyond this summer, but a miserable run of recent form meant that was never a serious possibility.
Erik ten Hag was confirmed as Rangnick’s permanent successor last week, with the Ajax boss set to take full control from the start of pre-season. However, the German tactician looked set to stay on at Old Trafford, having been offered a two-year role in an advisory capacity.
