Manchester United caretaker manager Ralf Rangnick says he's aware of the club's youth traditions.

Rangnick has already shown his commitment to promoting talented Academy prospects, having handed debuts to Charlie Savage and Zidane Iqbal in this month's UEFA Champions League match against BSC Young Boys.

Teden Mengi, Shola Shoretire and Anthony Elanga all made appearances in that game, too.

“I think since the Busby Babes this has always been part of the DNA of the club and the same was true under Sir Alex Ferguson in those 27 years," Rangnick explained.

“It's not only about youth, it's about being talented and having the right personality and mentality and if those things come together then of course I want to play as many of those young players as possible. We had three, four or five of them in our squad already and for me it's important to develop those players."
