Glasgow Rangers appear to be closing in on Giovanni van Bronckhorst as they look to bring a new manager to Ibrox after Steven Gerrard’s exit.

According to multiple outlets including the Daily Record, the Light Blues will be having face-to-face talks with the Dutchman today.

However, the Scottish Sun believes Frank Lampard could also be having talks with the Rangers hierarchy.

On Friday afternoon, there was a twist as the 43-year-old, who looked set for another job, suddenly became available again.

According to multiple outlets including BBC Sport, Lampard dropped out of the running to replace Daniel Farke at Norwich.

And Harry Redknapp has urged the Rangers board to make a move for the former Chelsea and Derby boss.

Giovanni van Bronckhorst remains favourite for the Ibrox vacancy but Redknapp told the Scottish Sun: “It’s got to be Frank, hasn’t it?

“He’ll go there. I’d take him all day long. Steven Gerrard then Frank Lampard – sounds good to me.

“If you’re looking at like for like then Frank’s perfect – over 100 caps for England, won everything as a player, great football man, top manager, made for the highest level.

“Frank could do it no problem. He’s got great knowledge of the game and is a hard worker.”
