Rangnick demands Williams returns to Man Utd after Norwich loan

Ralf Rangnick wants Brandon Williams to return to Manchester United this summer, according to reports.

The English fullback has spent this season on loan at Norwich City, where he has made 16 league starts this season.

Interim manager Rangnick has been impressed with Williams and has told the club to retain his services for next season.

A source from The Sun said of the situation: "Brandon couldn't play when United took on Norwich in December because of the loan deal agreement.

"He watched the game and was saying hello to some of the United players he is mates with when Rangnick made a beeline for him.

"He said he was aware of him, that he rated him and that he definitely wanted him back at United when the loan deal ends.

"So the message was 'keep working hard and enjoying playing and you have a big future ahead of you at United'.

"Brandon was impressed because the manager had only been in charge for a couple of games and had a lot on his plate, but took time out to speak to him.

"The manager likes his speed and versatility as he can play in both full back positions."
