Danny Rohl was on Kevin Thelwell’s shortlist for the Rangers job in the summer, however a clause in his Sheffield Wednesday contract put the Gers’ Sporting Director off.
After Steven Gerrard bowed out of the race for a potential Govan return, Rangers are back to square one in their hunt for a new manager. Having initially held positive discussions with the board, the Liverpool legend felt the timing wasn’t right and didn’t progress further with the recruitment process. Gerrard only left Saudi Pro League side, Al-Ettifaq in January.As one door closes, another one opens, as yet again, the usual suspects dominate the Ibrox shortlist for their new gaffer. Slaven Bilic, Kevin Muscat and Derek McInnes’ names are all being muttered, however the front runner looks to former Sheffield Wednesday manager, Danny Rohl. Thelwell was interested in the German’s services during the summer, however ended up opting for Russell Martin instead. As the 36-year old becomes the bookies favourite to replace Martin, the reason he didn’t head to Govan in the summer has came to light.
