Rangnick was since this summer the sporting director of Lokomotiv Moscow after having worked for a long time in Germany, in particular as manager at RB Leipzig.
Carrick, an express temp
Michael Carrick, former club and assistant to Solskjaer, had provided a very short interim against Villarreal in the Champions League, for a 2-0 victory which had allowed the Mancuniens to validate their qualification for the knockout stages.
He also led the team in the draw at Chelsea (1-1) on Sunday in the Premier League.
Carrick will remain in charge of the team until Ralf Rangnick's work visa is finalized.
