EXCLUSIVE NEWS:Former Rangers manager Steven Gerrard has emerged as the favourite to replace Russell Martin following the Englishman’s sacking after a disastrous start to the season.

Gerrard, who famously led Rangers to their 55th Scottish Premiership title in 2021, is reportedly being considered for a dramatic return to Ibrox as the club looks to stabilise its campaign. The 44-year-old’s previous spell in charge brought success, discipline, and a renewed winning mentality to Glasgow — qualities that many fans believe are desperately needed once again.

Rangers endured a torrid opening to the season under Martin, dropping vital league points and exiting European competition early, leaving the board under mounting pressure to make a decisive change.

Gerrard, currently without a job after parting ways with Al-Ettifaq earlier this year, is said to be open to a return to management in Europe. His proven track record in Scotland and emotional connection with Rangers make him a strong candidate to lead the club forward once more.

Club legend Gary McAllister, Gerrard’s former assistant, has also been linked with a return to Ibrox — a move that would reunite the coaching duo who masterminded Rangers’ most successful campaign in a decade.

With the search for Martin’s successor underway, all eyes are now on whether the Rangers hierarchy will turn back to the man who previously brought glory back to Govan.
