Ralf Rangnick will become the manager of Austria when he steps down as Manchester United’s interim boss at the end of the season.
Rangnick has signed a two-year deal until Euro 2024 after he was chosen to succeed Franco Foda, as revealed by Sportsmail.
‘It is an honour to take on the role,’ said Rangnick. ‘I am particularly excited about contesting the European Championship in Germany with a young, success-hungry team.’
Rangnick will still go ahead with his two-year consultancy role at Old Trafford. The German has three games left in charge before handing over to Erik ten Hag, and there will be another key change at United after it emerged yesterday that the club’s transfer negotiator, head of corporate development Matt Judge, has resigned.
