What Happened To The 9 Players That Ralf Rangnick Recommended To Manchester United

You guys remember Ralf Rangnick, right? Manchester United hired the German boss in 2021 to be an interim coach after Ole Gunnar Soljskaer was sacked. Actually, Rangnick was brought in to help with player recruitment and the plan was even that he would continue in a consultancy role at the club once a permanent manager is hired to replace him.

But despite being brought in as an interim for recruitment, Rangnick ended up being criticized for on-field performances and he was eventually let go.

But what if Manchester United actually let him do what he was hired to do? What if they listened to his recruitment advice and hired the players he recommended? Well, let’s look at what happened to the 9 players that Ralf Rangnick recommended to Man United.

Well, first of all, we all know what happened to Erling Haaland. Yes, Rangnick told United to sign him, but that didn’t happen.

There is a list of 9 players that dodged a huge career bullet. Glazers United destroys careers, not enhances them.

[julkernyne]

He was visionary manager. For long term, not short term

[tnosiraliyev]

They should have appreciated him, because he's a proven specialist

[Ailar]

Well, as an Austrian I am very grateful for Manchester United for not holding on to Rangnick. Because that freed him to manage our national squad, and hoo boy, what a difference he's made compared to anyone coming before him in that role (with the possible exception of Marcel Koller, who qualified for Euro 2016 in an extremely convincing manner, but then sort of hit a wall). It's like Austria has finally arrived in the 20th century tactics-wise.

ten Hag and United wouldn't be in such a mess if United had kept Rangnick on in the consultancy role as agreed. He knew what was wrong at the club and how to fix it, but the board wasn't happy that he exposed them in public.

I kept telling friends that Ten Haag's first mistake was letting this guy go. His arrogance let him sign Anthony for 80 million with no other quality signings. Such a shame

[zwikerbruno]

Ralf is one of footballs brightest mind …. A soccer genius who’s totally underrated. Ralf is top 5

[Legend-zobc]

Everything Rangnick said was true, he didn't pull his punches.

[harubutjojo]

Both Ole and Ralf had a vision for the club that the board didn't respect. I've said this for years but the problems do not lie with the managers but the board itself. This club will not change until this issue is sorted out, no matter how many managers we cycle through.

[barixuka]

Alvarez and Enzo would've been a game changer. 😮‍💨

[gouravghosh]

Letting Rangnick go was the biggest mistake made by Utd board. But I remember Utd fans wanting him out as well because of his poor reign as an Interim. Failing to realise he was arguably the best sporting director and club builder.

[helenvalentine]

Haaland wouldn’t have become the talent he is now if Man U had signed him.

[ichbins]

Laimer is really shining at the moment especially When playing as a fullback. Im extremely impressed by how good he is. I thought he would be a new Sabitzer but he actually has the ability to improve bayerns play when hes on the pitch.

[MrK.A]

'Welcome to Manchester United Rangnick. Part of your job is to recommend players for to buy.'

Rangnick: 'Well how about one of these guys?'

'Nah.'

[thacrypt]

"United have a pretty solid defence" had me coming up from my bed to comment. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[thursty]

All these players definitely dodged a bullet for their careers. United is where careers go to die

[aleksey]

No wonder why Jose said that highest achievement in his career so far was second place in PL with man utd

[lwandomadikizela]

Rangnick was right yet again. Imagine had we got those players we would be challenging for the Premier League title by now. Too bad the Glazers did not listen to him and now we're still further behind.

[valhearts]

He was intentionally let go. Dude was too honest in his press conferences. Every question the reporters threw at him, he gave an honest answer and he was exposing too much that didn’t make the people up there look good. The people up there had to cover for their owners to make sure they raked in dividends and the club was built as a business and lost the footballing aspect of the game. He was exposing superstar player power and etc and explained disciplinary was needed to bring the footballing back onto the field.

Definitely a good sporting director candidate but dude was bad at tactics and results on the pitch definitely made him one of the worst results as a utd managers after Moyes. The board used that as an excuse to kick him out

[wnd]

For anyone think that haaland is too big to fail even if he join downhill man utd team, remember sancho at Dortmund
