Ralf Rangnick ‘in line for £500,000 bonus’ if Man Utd finish in top four, on top of his £180,000-a-week wages

RALF RANGNICK will reportedly pick up a £500,000 bonus if he guides Manchester United to a top-four finish.

The German, who picks up £180,000-a-week, saw his team score a late winner against top four rivals West Ham on Saturday.

Marcus Rashford’s 93rd minute strike fired United temporarily into the top four.

And according to the Daily Star, if Rangnick can keep the Red Devils there, he’ll pick up a £500,000 bonus.

A top four finish may give Rangnick the chance to land the permanent position, something he’d very much like.

But should United appointment someone else, Rangnick will have a two-year consultancy role at the club.

The likes of Paris Saint-Germain boss Mauricio Pochettino and Ajax’s Erik ten Hag are being linked with the job.

Rangnick would reportedly like to work alongside Ten Hag, who has built a good reputation in Amsterdam.

And the Dutchman has already stated he is ready for a new challenge.

He said: “I think I’m ready for it [coaching abroad]. I would be happy to take up that challenge.

“But I’m not chasing it. If it turns out that that step will never come, I will not say that my coaching career has failed.

“But I think I have sufficient competencies to take on that challenge.”
