Betting has been suspended on Manchester United appointing Ralf Rangnick as the club’s interim manager.
It has been reported that the German coach has agreed a six-month deal to take over at Old Trafford following the sacking of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, with a two-year consultancy role to start next summer when they appoint a permanent manager.
Rangnick was quickly backed into 1/10 from 5/1 to take the role on Thursday afternoon, but further speculation led to his odds tumbling even further into 1/16, forcing BoyleSports to suspend the market immediately.
Michael Carrick had taken some support in the market after the 2-0 victory over Villarreal, as his chances of a more permanent appointment were clipped into 6/1 from 8/1 in the betting on Wednesday.
But with unrelenting support for Rangnick, Carrick was eased out to 16/1 before the market was suspended.

Punters are so convinced it’s a done deal that we had to suspend the betting after the German coach was hammered into 1/16 from 5/1, so it looks like a matter of time now.""
