While the Rangers board remain committed to Philippe Clement for now at least – CEO Patrick Stewart insists no sack is imminent a fortnight on from that Scottish Cup humiliation by Queen’s Park – one of the first tasks facing the San Francisco 49ers, presuming their takeover is successful, will likely be to find a replacement head coach to spearhead a bold new era at Ibrox.
Rangers News understands, meanwhile, that Red Bull are watching those Rangers talks with interest. The energy drink colossus became minority investors at Leeds United on the 49ers watch, and the prospect of a role at Ibrox in the near future cannot be ruled out.Now, while Red Bull are famed for a transfer policy which revolves around unearthing rough diamonds from less-heralded markets – see Sadio Mane, Dominik Szoboszlai and Erling Haaland – their head coach selections also tend to follow a similar pattern.
