The club said in a statement:<\/p>\n<p>Manchester United is delighted to announce the appointment of Ralf Rangnick as interim manager until the end of the season, subject to work visa requirements. Following this period, Ralf and the club have agreed that he will continue in a consultancy role for a further two years.<\/p>\n<p>Rangnick, who joins from Lokomotiv Moscow, takes over from first-team coach Michael Carrick, who has been in charge for two matches since Solskjaer was sacked. Said Manchester United\u2019s Football Director John Murtough:<\/p>\n<p>He was our number one candidate for interim manager, reflecting the invaluable leadership and technical skills he will bring from almost four decades of experience in management and coaching.<\/p>\n<p>Rangnick, a former RB Leipzig boss, said he was excited about joining Manchester United and focused on making it a successful season for the struggling club. He said:<\/p>\n<p>The squad is full of talent and has a great balance of youth and experience. All my efforts for the next six months will be on helping these players fulfil their potential, both individually and, most importantly, as a team.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond that, I look forward to supporting the club\u2019s longer-term goals on a consultancy basis.<\/p>\n<p>Rangnick has been an influence on managers like Chelsea\u2019s Thomas Tuchel, Bayern Munich\u2019s Julian Nagelsmann and Liverpool\u2019s Jurgen Klopp.<\/p>\n<p>He has experience as a sporting director and first-team manager \u2013 particularly within Red Bull\u2019s network of clubs with roles at Salzburg and Leipzig. Before then, he won the German Cup with Schalke in 2011 when he also reached the semi-finals of the Champions League.<\/p>\n<p>More: Al Jazeera<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/zimbabwe\">Zimbabwe<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Zimbabwe.
