Ralf Rangnick wanted to sign Erling Haaland, Christopher Nkunku, Luis Diaz, Dusan Vlahovic, Josko Gvardiol and Alvaro Morata at Manchester United.
Ralf Rangnick wanted to sign some top stars during his time at Manchester United, but fell on deaf ears with those responsible for the Red Devils. Now Austria’s current national coach revealed which names he had on his list for United.
In the back series of the 2021/22 season, Ralf Rangnick coached Manchester United on an interim basis, but was unsuccessful with the Red Devils. Rangnick then repeatedly criticized the reluctance of the club management on the transfer market. In conversation with Christian Falk from the picture Rangnick named his transfer goals on Wednesday.
Rangnick wanted Vlahovic, Nkunku, Haaland, Gvardiol, Diaz and Morata
In addition to Erling Haaland, then still in the service of BVB, and Christopher Nkunku, Rangnick asked the club’s management to submit transfer offers for Alvaro Morata, Dusan Vlahovic, Josko Gvardiol and Luis Diaz. At the time, Manchester United categorically rejected winter transfers.
Later, Rangnick, meanwhile national coach of Austria, repeatedly referred to the missed opportunities on the transfer market in the season analysis. Dusan Vlahovic switched to Juventus Turin at the time and promptly shot everything short and small with the old lady; with Luis Diaz, Liverpool FC was awarded the contract.
With a poorly assembled team, Rangnick eventually missed out on qualifying for the Champions League. In the summer, the Red Devils spent a lot of money and polished the squad with new stars (Casemiro, Antony, Lisandro Martinez, etc.).
