Ralf Rangnick provides update on Manchester United future amid Austria job links

Ralf Rangnick has confirmed that he will have the option to take another managerial job as he prepares to begin his role as a consultant to Manchester United.

Reports have emerged strongly linking the German with the Austrian national team, a role which he did not comment on following United’s 1-1 draw with Chelsea on Thursday.

However, he did outline his plans to continue at Old Trafford as he transitions from interim manager to first-team consultant when Erik ten Hag takes the reins in the summer.

Rangnick told Sky Sports: “I speak tonight about United and our game, I can also say I will definitely continue for the next two seasons in my consultancy role.

“We have agreed on the content and time of my role and so far Erik and I haven’t spoken but hopefully we will in the future.

“I’m more than happy and willing to help. It would leave space for another job but that’s what we agreed last year.”
