Kris Boyd believes that Rangers need an experienced manager with an acquaintance of Scottish football if they want to end Celtic's domestic dominance.
Barry Ferguson has been in charge since Philippe Clement was fired in February, where various candidates were considered his permanent successor at Ibrox.
It is assumed that there is no leader at this stage and there is no agreement threatening, although it is clear that the club hopes to have a new boss in the coming weeks.
Davide Ancelotti, son of Carlo, is an option important for Rangers. Sheffield Wenesday's Many sought -after manager Danny Rohl is another option that could make the last shortlist.
Rob Edwards, who has been without work since leaving Luton Town in January, is also one of the names that are being considered with former Southampton, Swansea and MK Dons Boss Russell Martin – who played for Rangers in 2018 – sounded about work.
Others who are linked to the track are former manager Steven Gerrard, Plus ex-Bournemouth and Wolves boss Gary O'Neil, who has been unemployed since December 2024.
The person who comes in, Boyd says they should get the appointment this time.
“Every appointment is a gamble. It doesn't matter who you are, if you have managed 500 games or you are a beginner. They can't afford to take this risk,” he told Sky Sports News.
“I get the fact that Ancelotti JR coached at a level. He is clearly a good coach, but we have seen it before.
“I know that people will think that we are sometimes crazy here, but Rangers and Celtic are a different animal than someone else. The control and the pressure and everything that is on coaches, players, every game is huge. They expect to beat Real Madrid, let alone St Johnstone or Motherwell.
“It would be better for Rangers at the moment to gain someone who has insight into the Scottish game or the British game and to understand what it means for so many people in Scotland.
“I am now looking at Rangers and there is already a loss of identity for a certain period.
“The recruitment must get better. Rangers must improve and to do that, you must have an experienced manager.
“Celtic is now in a good position in terms of the structure they have. Rangers come in terms of trying to get a structure behind the scenes, but those who have entered as a manager have given them the opportunity to sign who they want.
“Rangers must have an identity that the manager arrives to coach and manage the players who the club signs, because that is the modern way in which football clubs continue.
“Danny Rohl is interesting. There is no doubt that everyone you are speaking with on Sheffield Wednesday – we had a fan who came to football on Saturday, and he said that if it was not for Danny Rohl, and the way he experienced his company, Sheffield would be in a much worse position on Wednesday than they are.
“Russell Martin is another one. He really did well in Southampton in the championship. If he is the one who comes to Rangers, there is no doubt that there will be a style of football that will be played, but again, we are not an easy group to please here.”
