Rangers are bracing for a summer of change, both on and off the pitch, as they try to close the gap on Celtic. The Gers were well below the pace in the Scottish Premiership this season and are currently looking for a new management.
In addition to a new manager, the Ibrox club has potential new owners in the 49ers, who also own Leeds United. Reports about the budget that the Glasgow club will have available this summer will prick the ears of Rangers supporters.
Rangers to have a large transfer budget. Rangers’ early season was full of promise, as they kept pace with eventual winners Celtic.
However, everything fell apart, and Philippe Clement was fired for the Glasgow club’s poor performance. Rangers found some solace in Europe, reaching the Europa League quarter-finals before being defeated by Athletic Bilbao in two legs.

decisions right on. While the Ibrox club must sign properly, they must first make the right decision on their vacant manager job.
Barry Ferguson was in temporary control since late February and performed admirably while in command of his dream job. However, it is time for someone new and confident to lead the good ship Rangers through a safe passage.
Steven Gerrard has emerged as the choice for the Ibrox post, and he is well-known at the club from his previous successful term.
