And club legend
Gary Neville has previously expressed his thoughts on Rangnick sticking around, saying he would not be against extending his stay like the Red Devils did with predecessor
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
"The one thing that surprised me in his press conference last week was when he mentioned staying on beyond the term, when it was quite clear he was going to take six months before a consultancy arrangement," Neville said on Sky Sports following the former
RB Leipzig boss' appointment.
"Let's say there isn't anyone world class available who can lead the club over the next four years, and Ralf Rangnick has a good six months. I wouldn't be against him staying on for another season as a United fan."
"You might think if one becomes available for four years, who will be the right man for the project, maybe at that point he goes to that upstairs role and a manager comes in."
Following back-to-back
Premier League wins, Rangnick's side sit in fourth place during the winter break and Neville believes the temporary boss has "more control" at Old Trafford after a "very good week."
"Tough games, games you would think United would win but with the way they've been playing you're not quite sure anymore," the ex-right-back said on his
Sky Sports podcast.
"They rode their luck against
Brentford and yesterday [last Saturday's
1-0 win against
West Ham ] you saw something happening. I think Ralf Rangnick comes out of this week stronger than he started.

"I think people are backing him. I think he feels stronger and more in control than he was two weeks ago."
Rangnick himself shocked reporters at his first press conference as interim manager, which Neville alluded to, by admitting
he could recommend himself for the role of permanent boss come the end of the season.
Man Utd will demand a £12m bonus from Newcastle if they stay up with Jesse Lingard in their ranks.

If the board really plan to back him they should sign 1 player for him during this transfer period to have a better chance for a top 4 place.
