Man Utd to make managerial decision this month Manchester United are planning to step up their search for a new permanent manager this month, with the Athletic reporting that the Red Devils are “working towards making a decision in the next few weeks”. Ralf Rangnick has been employed in an interim role at Old Trafford since Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s sacking back in November. There is a reported shortlist of permanent options drawn up, including Mauricio Pochettino and Erik ten Hag.
