Manchester United

The German led the Red Devils on an interim basis in the second half of the 2021-22 campaign, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer sacked last November following a poor run of form.

Rangnick largely found it difficult to make his mark at the helm, leaving his role as manager with a record of 11 wins, 10 draws and eight defeats from 29 matches.

The 63-year-old was unable to guide Man United to a top-four finish in the Premier League table, but the club did enough to secure sixth position, and a spot in the group stage of the 2022-23 Europa League.

Rangnick has now stepped aside for Erik ten Hag, with the Dutchman officially beginning his time as Red Devils manager earlier this week.

The German has been appointed as Austria's new head coach, but he is also taking on a consultancy role at Old Trafford, which is expected to last for two years.

Rangnick said earlier this month that he had discussed his role at the club "in detail" with Ten Hag, and he was confident of being a huge asset for the 20-time English champions moving forward.

"We spoke about that in detail," Rangnick said, "about all the different areas where I could maybe be of help. It's not that easy or not that difficult to know in which areas this could be.

"I think we showed that in the last 15 years with Hoffenheim, Salzburg and Leipzig, even for clubs not as prominent as Manchester United, it's possible to identify, develop and even at one stage sell.

"I know Manchester United is not a selling club but rather a developing and buying club, but this is possible and this is what is most important, that the club finds players for whom it is the next next logical step is in their career, to develop their sporting career.

"If that happens, I can be positive and I can hopefully be encouraging for our fans that we will bring United back to the top."

However, according to Football Insider, Rangnick's new position at Old Trafford will only see him work for the club six days a month.

The role will allegedly see the German earn £20,000 a month, and he is expected to be involved in the club's recruitment moving forward.

Rangnick previously acted as head of sports and development for Red Bull, working with both Red Bull Salzburg and RB Leipzig.

The former Man United interim head coach had been with Lokomotiv Moscow as their manager of sports and development, meanwhile, before making the move to Old Trafford.

Rangnick found it difficult to control a turbulent dressing room during his time in Manchester, though, with rumours of issues at the club rife during the second half of last season.

The Red Devils lost their last two Premier League matches of the campaign to Brighton & Hove Albion and Crystal Palace but were still able to finish above seventh-placed West Ham United to secure Europa League football for next term.
