Rangers appear to be on the brink of announcing Danny Röhl as their new manager after the German coach was pictured arriving at Glasgow Airport on Monday morning.
The 35-year-old, who most recently managed Sheffield Wednesday, was seen stepping off a flight and later travelling to Rangers’ training base at Auchenhowie, signalling that final talks over his appointment are nearing completion.
Röhl’s arrival comes just days after the club’s pursuit of Kevin Muscat appeared to collapse, prompting Rangers sporting director Kevin Thelwell and chief executive James Bisgrove to accelerate discussions with the former Bayern Munich and Germany assistant coach.
Sources close to Ibrox suggest that only the “final formalities” remain before Röhl is officially confirmed as Rangers’ new head coach, with an announcement expected within the next 24 to 48 hours.
If appointed, Röhl will become the fifth Rangers manager in four years, tasked with revitalizing the team after a turbulent start to the Scottish Premiership campaign under Russell Martin, who was dismissed earlier this month.
Röhl earned widespread praise for his tactical acumen and high-intensity style during his time at Sheffield Wednesday, where he guided the club to Championship survival despite inheriting a side in crisis. His emphasis on structured pressing and player development is believed to have impressed the Rangers hierarchy.
Fans are eagerly awaiting official confirmation from the club, with hopes that Röhl’s modern approach and European pedigree can spark a turnaround at Ibrox.
