When choosing the next manager for Ibrox, the Glasgow Rangers must make the correct phone number. No IF, no Buts, no Maybes.
Rangers have won only two domestic honors over the past four seasons as their old company rival recently won the fourth Premier League title in a row. For light blue, this is simply not good enough.
While experienced managers are the number one on the priority list, is there a chance for the left field name to secure a vacant role?
Ranger searches for new manager
Names like Russell Martin, Gary O'Neil and Rob Edwards have been linked. Indeed, even Steven Gerrard is touted to return to Ibrox before the 2025/26 season.
David Ancelotti has become a candidate for the role of Rangers in recent days, according to Italian journalist Gianluca di Marzio.
If CESC Fà Bregas leaves, he hopes to take over Como, but now it has changed over the past 24 hours or so.
Carlo's son Ancelotti never served in senior management, but he was an assistant to the father of clubs such as Real Madrid, Naples, Bayern Munich and PSG. Well, he is now planning to break down the link.
Manager's focus
Who is the greatest coach on the land? The Focus series at Football Fancast is designed to reveal everything.
Reports from Spain on Monday night showed that he was actually “will be the manager of the Rangers”, where he will be added to his second place by Real Madrid first-team coach Francesco Mauri.
The news comes after confirming that his father will leave Madrid at the end of this month as he becomes Brazil's new head coach.
Why Ancelotti will become Gerrard 2.0
When Gerrard was appointed in the summer of 2018, his only position was to be in charge of the Liverpool U18.
While coaching at Anfield, the legendary midfielder won 18 of his 32 games while leading the U18 and U19, thus putting him in control of a club with Rangers’ reputation, which was a gamble. That gambling didn't have much effect at all.
Indeed, the first two seasons Gerrard was in charge saw Light Blues beat the Celtic three times, including a first win at Parkhead in nine years and a championship challenge.
2020/21 will be his Annus mirabilis. The Ibrox team not only won the Premier League title, but their performance was unbeaten.
After that season, the club needs to invest in the competition lineup to prove that the success of the league championship is not a lucky fl.
For Gerrard, he didn't get the support he needed and eventually left in November 2021. The board took risks to inexperienced managers and eventually brought dividends.

Can they do something similar this summer? Ancelotti is definitely left field, but has a name, although that shouldn't be counted and a major experience working under one of the greatest managers of all time.
So, why did he think so highly? Well, he is a sports science graduate and he obviously values player adaptability, but is also particularly savvy in tactics.
His main role in Madrid was to provide his father with a different tactical perspective, which made his role very important in the Spanish capital.
The BBC said that not only satisfies with the second voice, David was also responsible for training, fixing the device and designing the game mode.
In that sense, he is a proper coach, maybe a bit like Michael Beale. He is the brain on the training ground. While he may be more effective than Gerrard in tactical terms, the lack of experience is certainly very similar here.
For further insight, the words of former Dundee co-coach Tam Courts will certainly help after working with Italians in the coaching course. He used to praise the 35-year-old and said: “He is modest, but he also has a lot of decisiveness. He is a person of character and has a little bit of steel to him.
“I totally understand why he is a man who would consider it, especially in terms of the attractiveness and retention of the players.
There is no doubt that the evaluation of his abilities and what needs new reports are needed, the move to Glasgow looks to be on the horizon.
