Steven Gerrard
Former Rangers manager Steven Gerrard is now odds-on to make a sensational return to Ibrox.
During his first tenure, Gerrard ended Celtic's nine-in-a-row dominance by leading Rangers to an unbeaten Premiership title in the 2020-21 season, restoring belief and high standards at the club.
His teams were tactically disciplined, defensively strong, and earned respect both domestically and in Europe.
Gerrard's popularity among fans endures, with many crediting him for reviving the the club's fortune.
While his spells at Aston Villa and in Saudi Arabia brought mixed fortunes, his success in Glasgow and understanding of the club's demands make him the leading option to take the reins once more.
Kevin Muscat
Kevin Muscat has quickly risen to the top of the list of potential candidates to replace Russell Martin as Rangers manager.
A former Rangers defender, Muscat knows precisely what the club demands, having experienced the intensity of Ibrox firsthand during his playing days.
Since moving into management, he has forged a strong reputation overseas, following in the footsteps of Ange Postecoglou with trophy-winning spells in both Australia's A-League and Japan's J-League.
At Yokohama Marinos, Muscat maintained the club's exciting, attacking brand of football, to deliver silverware and Champions League qualification.
His sides play with relentless tempo and belief - traits that would strike a chord with Rangers supporters.
Muscat would be an ambitious appointment for a club eager to rediscover its winning edge.
Derek McInnes
Derek McInnes may be an individual that fans would wish, but the ex-Rangers player has made it clear he intends to remain at Hearts despite mounting speculation linking him with the Ibrox job, reinforcing his commitment to the long-term plans at Tynecastle.
He is currently under contract for four more years, and although he has admirers inside the Ibrox hierarchy, no formal approach has been made.
Meanwhile, Hearts have begun the season in terrific form, going unbeaten in seven league matches and climbing to the top of the Scottish Premiership.
Sean Dyche
Sean Dyche has emerged as a credible candidate for the Rangers job - a manager renowned for his discipline, organisation, and ability to transform struggling teams into competitive sides.
At Burnley, Dyche established a reputation for overachievement, guiding the club to European qualification and consistently punching above their weight through work ethic, and team spirit.
His recent spell at Everton reinforced those credentials, as he steadied a sinking ship and secured Premier League survival despite significant challenges - while also working closely with current Rangers sporting director Kevin Thelwell.
For Rangers, his vast experience, tactical discipline, and no-nonsense authority could be precisely what's needed to bring long-term stability and results back to Ibrox.
