Steven Gerrard has emerged as the frontrunner for the vacant manager job at Rangers.
Gerrard led Rangers to the Scottish Premiership title in the 2020-21 season, and the supporters still love him at Ibrox.
Rangers have held talks with Gerrard over a return, and it seems as though he is keen on a second spell with the Govan outfit.
His comeback may have moved a step closer after the latest developments away from Auchenhowie.

The ongoing talks with the Gers could be the reason for that absence, suggesting that the appointment is getting closer.
