Rangnick: "The people with whom I've spoken so far, they've been very clear we're talking about a six-and-a-half month role — If they then speak with me about that [permanent job], we will see."
Rangnick on Carrick leaving: "I got to know this two days and met with Michael [Carrick] and Kieran [McKenna]. I had a private conversation for about an hour and tried to convince him [Carrick] to stay on board."
Rangnick asked about receiving £10m if he signs Erling Haaland: "£10m for Haaland, £10m for Kylian Mbappé, £10m for Lewandowski, and £10m for Joshua Kimmich... Obviously, it's nonsense. There's no clause in my contract."
Rangnick on accepting an interim role: "At the time, when Chelsea contacted me, they only talked about the option to become interim manager for four months."
"We're talking about six a half months [at United] and we also have a two-year advisory role. If United contact you for such role then you can't turn it down."
Rangnick: "The offensive players we have here, we have so many top players in the offensive department that we don't need to speak about any other player."
Rangnick: "Modern football in the last 10 years, it has completely changed into a more physical, more athletic, more vertical game. In order to develop teams, you need to train the bodies and the brains."
Carrick: “My time at this great club will always rank as the best years of my career. I have decided that now is the right time for me to leave the club. I would like to wish Ralf Rangnick, the staff, the players and the fans all the best for the future”.
