Rangers and RB Salzburg are in talks over a deal that would see Rangers head coach Danny Röhl take up a role at the Austrian Bundesliga club. Multiple outlets report that Salzburg’s interest has progressed to negotiations between the two clubs, with Röhl’s potential departure described as imminent or likely. Sky Sports later reports that the Röhl-to-Salzburg deal is completed, indicating his exit from Rangers is effectively set.
As Röhl’s future becomes clearer, Rangers’ planning for a replacement also comes into focus. The Guardian and other reports name Derek McInnes, currently managing Hearts, as a leading option Rangers could pursue. The Guardian also notes that McInnes previously turned down the chance to manage Rangers in 2017. Additional coverage says talks with McInnes have intensified or are at an advanced stage.
Overall, the coverage centers on Salzburg finalising negotiations for Röhl and Rangers preparing for a post-Röhl appointment, with McInnes emerging as the primary candidate should Röhl leave.
