It is the former Liverpool captain’s first managerial role, succeeding Graeme Murty who was fired by the Glasgow club on Tuesday.“I am honoured to become the next manager of Rangers,” Gerrard said. ”I have enormous respect for this football club, and its history and tradition. I can’t wait to start this new journey at Rangers as we look to build on the many successes that this club has achieved.”Gerrard’s backroom staff have yet to be confirmed but it is understood the former Liverpool player and coach Gary McAllister will become part of his team at Ibrox.
Gerrard had been working for his former club, serving as the U18s’ manager since last summer. The 37-year-old has also been working in the media, as a key component of BT Sport’s Champions League coverage.
