Arsenal fans have taken to social media following the news that former RB Leipzig manager Ralf Rangnick could be a contender to replace Mikel Arteta as manager of the north London club should the Spaniard be sacked.

that the German manager, as well as the likes of Brendan Rodgers and Rafa Benitez, are candidates to take the hot seat at the Emirates Stadium should Arteta face the sack later this year, with the report stating that north London rivals Tottenham are also interested in the three managers as they continue their search for Jose Mourinho’s successor.

Rangnick has been out of a managerial role for some time now, but supporters on social media are eager for the German football man to take over from Arteta at Arsenal given his massive influence on both coaches who have come through the ranks in recent years as well as his impact on the Red Bull football network.

Here’s what some Arsenal fans had to say about Rangnick to replace Arteta at the club on Twitter…

If Ragnick is available you make the move now! Him going to Spurs would be another case of Arsenal doing poor business while others improve

Ragnick is perfect for us

Rangnick is one of the best managers in the world. He single handedly built the Red Bull teams up from nothing.
