Manchester United have found a replacement for Ola Gunnar Solskjaer, at least temporarily.
According to a report in Athletics, the English luxury club reached an agreement today (Thursday) with Ralph Rangnik, who will stand on the lines as a temporary coach for six months.
After completing his role he will continue for another two years as a professional consultant at the club.
Since July, the 63-year-old German has been the sporting director of the Russian club Locomotive Moscow.
He has previously coached for several teams in Germany, including Stuttgart, Hanover, Schalke, Hoffenheim and Leipzig.
However, Rangnik is not expected to stand on the lines in the Red Devils' upcoming game against Chelsea this coming Sunday.
