Here are the most recent Rangers and Celtic headlines, including transfer rumours and the next management debate.
A summer of whispers is on the way, but they began in late spring with Rangers and Celtic.
After winning the Premiership and League Cup this season, the Hoops are focused on completing a treble when they face Aberdeen in the Scottish Cup final this weekend. Rangers are in the midst of a planned purchase by 49ers Enterprises, therefore everything is changing. A new permanent manager is required.
Steven Gerrard, the former manager, is the latest to be linked. Here are some of the most recent headlines on Rangers and Celtic as the weekend approaches.
Serie A club is interested in signing Celtic’s key player. Arne Engels is an important pillar for Celtic, having joined from Augsburg last year and established himself as a midfield regular, earning notice in Belgium. His performance in his first year at Hoops has piqued the interest of Serie A clubs, including Atalanta, according to SportItalia. They played Celtic in the Champions League this season, and according to the article, “in midfield concrete attempts had already been made for Frendrup of Genoa and Arne Engels of Celtic.”
Engels demonstrated his generous side this week when he and his teammates delivered the Premiership trophy to Glasgow Children’s Hospital before of the cup final. He told Sky Sports: “It was amazing to meet all of the kids, especially to show them the trophy and give them something back. It’s always lovely to see them, especially their happy faces. They reacted quite nicely. They were all astonished that we were in there, and I believe they enjoyed it. So it was a really pleasant thing to do, and it was nice to see everyone’s smiling smiles.
“They wish you luck, but they were only thrilled to see the trophy. That is the most essential thing: it was all about the children. I hope we might have given them something in return, and they were really delighted. We are presently training properly and recovering. So everyone is looking forward to the next game, which we all know will be a big one. So everyone is focused on that, and we want to win another trophy.
A pundit expressed concern about Steven Gerrard’s Rangers.
Craig Moore, a Rangers hero turned commentator, has misgivings about Gerrard’s return to Glasgow. Asked on talkSPORT about the move, he noted that the attitude in the nation towards the ex boss is still varied and the trophy count first time around did not satisfy requirements.
When questioned if it was a smart idea to return and whether the Liverpool icon could do a decent job, Moore said, “Steven now has the experience, I guess, of seeing the football club for three years.” The reception of Steven Gerrard is still highly varied here. I guess he ended Celtic’s 10-game winning streak and gave Rangers their 55th title. That one trophy out of nine was also far from adequate.
