RB Leipzig chief suggests Manchester United manager Ralf Rangnick is a huge admirer of Amadou Haidara
According to RB Live, In a recent interview, RB Leipzig chief Oliver Mintzlaff has hinted that the new interim manager of Manchester United, Ralf Rangnick, ‘loves’ RB Leipzig player Amadou Haidara.
Amadou Haidara has become a key player for RB Leipzig in recent seasons. The Mali international has already made 17 appearances this season and has been decisive for his team’s success in the Bundesliga.
On the other hand, new Manchester United manager Ralf Rangnick has a connection with the 23-year-old midfielder. The German manager signed him for Leipzig from Red Bull Salzburg in 2018. Thus, the former Leipzig manager knows the qualities the Mali international possesses.
Soon after the arrival of Rangnick to the team, Haidara has been linked with a move to Old Trafford. It’s not a coincidence, and the RB Leipzig has already suggested the reason for it.
Oliver Mintzlaff hinted at the admiration Rangnick has for the 23-year-old midfielder. This could be a huge reason why the manager has been keen on luring the prospect.
“Of course, he is also a player that Ralf Rangnick loves.”
Manchester United has found itself in hot water at the beginning of the season. At the same time, Paul Pogba has been sidelined for several weeks due to injury. The drop in performance could hint at the absence of the vital midfielder.

However, the Red Devils would have to find ways without their crucial midfielder as Pogba has been recently linked with a move away from Old Trafford. It is improbable that he would renew his contract in the following summer.
On the other hand, Haidara could become a great alternative in the middle of the park due to his reliable and consistent performances. Rangnick already has deep knowledge about the midfielder and would be looking to use his full potential.
