And report one of Rangnick's first bits of business at Old Trafford in January could be to move for Haidara again.
The 23-year-old has previously said he would love the opportunity to play for the Red Devils.
In 2019 he told : “I like Manchester United very much and watch as many games as possible. I dream of playing there. ”
Haidara was signed by Leipzig as a replacement , who joined Liverpool in 2018, and his box-to-box playing style could boost United's suspect midfield.

The Mirror report says United might face competition from Newcastle in signing the star, who has a £33m release cause in his contract.
