Manchester United could be swayed by Ralf Rangnick's high praise of Oliver Glasner as they consider appointing the Austrian as their new permanent head coach. Following Ruben Amorim's dismissal earlier this month, Darren Fletcher was promoted from his Under-18s head coach position to caretaker manager at Old Trafford. The managerial role at United has attracted interest from several potential candidates, including the current Crystal Palace boss. "For me, Oliver Glasner is currently one of the most exciting coaches - not only in Germany, but in all of Europe. But again, you can't react, we can't help them, it makes it really tough tonight."
