In a dramatic twist, Steven Gerrard could be heading back to Rangers, the club where he made his managerial breakthrough — and won hearts — with a historic title triumph.
According to Goal, the Scottish Premiership giants are eyeing a sensational reunion with their former boss after sacking Russell Martin. Martin’s dismal spell came to an end after just 17 games in charge, capped by a disappointing 1-1 draw with Falkirk. Rangers now sit a lowly eighth in the table, with just eight points from seven games — a far cry from their title-challenging expectations.
Desperate for a turnaround, the club is reportedly turning to a very familiar face. Gerrard, who took the reins at Ibrox in 2018, famously ended Celtic’s dominance by guiding Rangers to the 2020-21 Premiership title — their first league win since 2011.
After a stint in the Premier League with Aston Villa and a brief adventure in Saudi Arabia with Al-Ettifaq (which ended in January), Gerrard is now available — and ready for a comeback.
Could this be the reunion Rangers fans have been dreaming of? The board’s next move could define their season — and Gerrard’s managerial legacy.
