Rangers have recruited Barry Ferguson till the end of the season, but they are already looking for their new permanent manager.
Philippe Clement’s tenure at Ibrox proved untenable, therefore the club opted to part company with him.
Given the context of the San Francisco 49ers’ takeover saga, they chose to make an interim rather than a permanent appointment.
The Gers plan to bring in David Wagner or Derek McInnes.
David Wagner, the former Huddersfield Town and Schalke manager, has been linked with the Ibrox hot seat in recent hours.
However, the board chose not to approach him right now, but interest in him exists and is expected to be pursued this summer.
Derek McInnes, along with Wagner, is the other manager under consideration by the club this summer, with the takeover expected to be finalized by then, according to Ben Jacobs.
The former Premier League manager comes highly recommended and has been praised by Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola.
under 2019, the Spaniard explained: “He did an incredible job because in the circumstances it’s not easy to compete in the Premier League with the players they have and the amount of players.”
Rangers must consider recruiting David Wagner this summer.
Wagner is undoubtedly an intriguing managerial candidate for the Ibrox at the end of the season, providing a combination of tactical knowledge, proven success, and adaptability that is consistent with the club’s goals.
Additionally, his time under Jurgen Klopp at Borussia Dortmund suggests a modern, progressive approach to coaching, potentially appealing to Rangers’ need to evolve beyond traditional Scottish football norms.
While his recent departure from Norwich in 2024 might raise questions, it also means he’d be available and motivated to prove himself at a club of Rangers’ stature.
The 53-year-old could stabilise the club and lay the groundwork for a competitive resurgence in the Scottish Premiership and beyond.
