Ralf Rangnick has been awarded his work visa to take temporary control of Manchester United.
The German, who has been working as a director since 2019, had to convince the English FA that he deserves a permit after his spell away from the dugout meant he was not automatically eligible for a permit.
That was never expected to be a problem and was instead viewed simply as a delay, but Rob Dawson has now confirmed that the paperwork has all been finalised and Rangnick is free to take over at Old Trafford.
United are set to take on Arsenal on Thursday evening and, given the timing, Rangnick is not expected to be in charge of that game and will instead watch on from the dugout, with his first match as interim boss set to come against Crystal Palace at the weekend.
