DBasia.news – Manchester United are reportedly in the final stages of negotiations for Lokomotiv Moscow’s director of sport and football, Ralf Rangnick. Although known as a genius coach, Rangnick also has a number of demands that the Red Devils must meet.
Manchester United are one step away from finding an interim manager until the end of the season. A number of sources say Man United are trying to bring in Ralf Rangnick.
The German man is known as the inventor of the gegenpressing style that Jurgen Klopp is currently using at Liverpool. With these tactics, Rangnick won a number of titles.
Not surprisingly, a number of positive responses were seen regarding the appointment of Ralf Rangnick as Manchester United manager. The Red Devils are considered to make the right move.
However, it is not an easy matter for Man United if Rangnick is behind the wheel. The 63-year-old tactician is known to have many demands.
The basic one is Rangnick wants to be involved in all aspects including off the pitch. This is also the reason why he currently chooses to work behind the scenes rather than being a coach.
“I’m happy where I am. However, if a club wants to talk to me, the question is can they fulfill my request? I want to exert influence in the area of development of the club,” Rangnick told the Guardian, two years ago.
“Otherwise, you will only get half of my ability,” he added.
That way, Rangnick wants to be directly involved in the selection of players to be brought in by Manchester United, including from a young age. Previously, Rangnick had a good track record in that role with evidence of players such as Erling Haaland and Timo Werner.
Not surprisingly, Ralf Rangnick reportedly asked to include a clause that would allow him to become a consultant after he finished serving as interim manager. The Red Devils have reportedly agreed and are ready to provide a two-season contract.
