Manchester United are set to appoint Ralf Rangnick as their manager, according to The Athletic.
The outlet reports that the German will be offered the deal on a short-term basis, as the club are apparently interested in securing Mauricio Pochettino long-term.
Rangnick is currently working at Lokomotiv Moscow as a Head of Development but has an extensive coaching background. The 63-year-old has influenced the likes of Jurgen Klopp, Thomas Tuchel and Ralph Hasenhuttl with genenpressing in the past.
Most recently, Rangnick took charge of RB Leipzig.
