Ralf Rangnick has added Ewan Sharp to his coaching staff at Manchester United.

Rangnick has recently brought Chris Armas and Sascha Lense to the club and analyst Sharp is the latest addition to his staff.

The German worked with Sharp when he was the New York Red Bulls' video analyst and assistant coach. Sharp then followed Rangnick to Lokomotiv Moscow in Russia while he's now relocated with the 63-year-old again, this time to Old Trafford.

Rangnick called Sharp 'such a talented person' upon his appointment at United and he'll be in the Reds' dugout against Newcastle.

United is the biggest club that Sharp has worked with, so how will he actually help Rangnick in the coming months? Sharp, speaking to the Training Ground Podcast last year, explained his role on match days, which involves helping at half-time in the dressing room.

"Typically, I’ll always be at the game days,” Sharp said.

“I’ll be at the match, I’ll watch the match live. I’ll help prepare some video for half-time and as I’m watching the game live I’m already setting up some clips for us to make the next day in a team meeting or later in the week.

"But prior to that game, I’m already working ahead for the next game, so if we play on Saturday then by Sunday or Monday I’ll already have something prepared to give to the coaches to show them what we can expect from the next opponent.

"That will come with video and some data, it's a little bit of a report."

United play Newcastle at St. James' Park on Monday 28 December and Sharp will be involved in Rangnick's preparation.
