Rangers have sacked their under-fire boss after a string of poor results and immediately unveiled Dutch icon Mark van Bommel as their new head coach. The announcement sent shockwaves through Ibrox, with fans barely able to process the speed of change.
Club insiders confirmed that the decision was made late last night following crunch talks with the board, who felt the team’s lack of progress in Europe and inconsistent domestic form left no choice but to act. Van Bommel, a former Barcelona, Bayern Munich, and AC Milan midfield enforcer, has now stepped into one of the most high-pressure jobs in British football.
The Dutchman’s managerial reputation has grown quickly after guiding Royal Antwerp to a league and cup double, and Rangers believe his intensity, tactical knowledge, and winning mentality will be the spark the team desperately needs.
Supporters greeted the move with a mix of shock and excitement, with many calling it a bold gamble. Now, all eyes turn to Van Bommel, who must steady the ship and reignite Rangers’ season in one of the most dramatic appointments in recent club history.
