Rangers' Rohl Confident in Title Push Despite Recent Setbacks

Danny Rohl is "100% convinced" he will remain in charge of Rangers next season, despite facing pressure from results and speculation about a potential move. The Ibrox side suffered two consecutive league defeats, a first since 2018, and risks falling to third in the Scottish Premiership with another loss at Celtic Park on Sunday. Rohl, who took over from Russell Martin in October when Rangers trailed Hearts by 13 points and Celtic by eight, has been linked to a position at Wolfsburg in Germany. He stated, "There's a lot of rumours... my full focus is on Rangers." In recent discussions with the board, Rohl emphasized the club's goal: Winning titles in the future Returning Rangers to their former glory Currently, it appears Rangers might end the season without a trophy for the second consecutive year, having not won since the 2023 League Cup. They have faced tough competition, with Celtic winning the previous nine trophies and Hearts on the verge of claiming their first top-flight title since 1960. Rohl noted that while their form had improved since his appointment, recent defeats against Motherwell and Hearts have complicated their bid for a Champions League qualifying spot. He remarked, "A good process is not enough... We want the titles and for this, we have to change things." He acknowledged the need for better game management to overcome challenging moments in matches, emphasizing that training excellence must translate to on-pitch performance.
