Rangnick spoke on his role: “The squad is full of talent and has a great balance of youth and experience. All my efforts for the next six months will be on helping these players fulfil their potential, both individually and, most importantly, as a team.

“Beyond that, I look forward to supporting the club’s longer-term goals on a consultancy basis.”

The German has vast experience at the likes of RB Leipzig and Hoffenheim and should provide valuable experience to the end of the season.
