As Rangers prepare for pre-season training, they may soon be on the hunt for their third manager in just one year. Reports indicate that Danny Rohl is in discussions with RB Salzburg to become their new head coach. This potential move has sparked speculation among Rangers fans about the future of the club without the German manager.

Despite Rohl's efforts to revive Rangers' title hopes after a difficult start under Russell Martin, the team's poor finish—losing four of their last five games to end up third—has left many fans questioning his leadership.

If Rohl departs, the club could consider several options:

• A return for Steven Gerrard, who has previously expressed interest in managing the club again.
• A potential move for Derek McInnes, the current head coach of Hearts, who has been linked to the position due to his successful tenure.

Gerrard, who led Rangers to their last title in 2021, said he was "very close" to returning last October but hesitated due to uncertainties about the club's hierarchy. With recent changes, including the dismissal of sporting director Kevin Thelwell, the environment may now be more favorable for his return. Gerrard has emphasized the importance of a supportive structure and has openly stated that he thrives in passionate settings.

On the other hand, McInnes has a strong commitment to Hearts, where he has built a competitive squad and is preparing for Champions League qualifiers. He previously turned down a chance to manage Rangers in 2017, favoring stability at Aberdeen during a challenging period for Rangers.

With both candidates possessing strong ties to Scottish football and differing motivations, the Ibrox hierarchy faces a crucial decision that could shape the club's future direction.
