Manchester United have announced that former interim manager Ralf Rangnick will not be staying at the club in a planned consultancy position.
The German — who is set to focus solely on taking charge of the Austrian national team — was appointed as United interim boss back in November, with a view to becoming a football consultant at the end of his time coaching the first team. Initially, he only accepted the role on the proviso that he was offered a future at Old Trafford beyond the end of this season.
Rangnick is hugely experienced in matters off the pitch and oversaw excellent progress within the Red Bull franchise at both RB Leipzig and Red Bull Salzburg. It was hoped he would bring that wealth of experience and knowledge to Old Trafford ahead of a new era getting under way this summer under a new manager.
