Rangnick, who was in interim charge of Manchester United for the second half of the 2021/22 season, has since been overseeing the Austria national team following his departure from Old Trafford. There have been reports that Rangnick has declined an offer from a certain party, adding to the challenges faced by the Bundesliga giants, who were previously in competition with Liverpool for Xabi Alonso. However, Alonso has chosen to stay with Bayer Leverkusen. Bayern Munich then shifted their focus to former manager Julian Nagelsmann, but he also rejected a return to the club, instead extending his contract with the Germany national team ahead of their upcoming home tournament.
Some are now questioning whether Bayern should consider sticking with Thomas Tuchel. Rangnick’s tenure at Manchester United began under challenging circumstances, as he took over after Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s dismissal, while the club searched for a permanent successor. In Germany, Rangnick is known as the “father of Gegenpressing.”
