According to reports, Gerrard is “jumping at the chance” to take charge of Rangers once again — nearly four years after guiding the club to their historic 55th Scottish Premiership title in 2021, ending Celtic’s decade-long dominance.
The 44-year-old, who recently departed Saudi Pro League side Al-Ettifaq, remains a hugely popular figure among sections of the Rangers support. His first spell at Ibrox transformed the club’s fortunes, restoring pride, discipline, and a winning mentality during his three-year tenure.
Sources close to Gerrard suggest he believes there is “unfinished business” in Glasgow and that he feels a strong connection with the club, its fans, and the city. One insider told The Guardian:
“Steven still feels he has a bond with Rangers. The timing might be perfect — he knows the club, the expectations, and the pressure. He’d jump at the chance to return.”
Rangers are currently assessing a number of options to replace Martin, with Sean Dyche, Kevin Muscat, and Kjetil Knutsen also linked to the vacant role. However, Gerrard’s emotional pull and proven track record in Scotland make him one of the standout candidates.
The Rangers board are expected to make a swift decision as they aim to stabilise the team and reignite their title ambitions. For many fans, the thought of Gerrard’s return offers a glimmer of hope and a chance to rekindle the spirit of his successful first spell.
Whether the club will turn to sentiment or experience remains to be seen — but one thing is clear: Steven Gerrard is ready and waiting to step back into the Ibrox hot seat.
