Rangnick seeks Manchester United's Vivell for AC Milan overhaul
Summary

Ralf Rangnick is targeting Christopher Vivell, Manchester United’s director of recruitment, to assist in a major structural overhaul at AC Milan. Vivell has been influential in United’s recruitment strategy since his full-time appointment. Rangnick, now the head coach of the Austria national team, is reportedly set to become Milan’s technical director, aiming to bring in Vivell and Southampton's Johannes Spors as part of his staff. This move follows a tumultuous season for Milan, which saw several key departures from the club's executive ranks. A decision from Milan’s ownership group is expected soon regarding Rangnick's requests.
