Former Manchester United caretaker Ralf Rangnick was an interested observer at a UEFA Youth League game.

Rangnick, who now manages Austria, did not stay on at United after his six month caretaker spell.

The German, who is a popular figure in the nation, was taking in United's Under-19s' game against Bayern Munich.

What is unusual is that no Austrians were involved in the game, which means Rangnick was there for personal reasons.

He may have been keeping a watch on the youth players of both clubs, especially United.

Rangnick did make many suggestions to United's board from his time in charge, but they ultimately chose not to keep him on as a consultant.
