Danny Rohl has received assurances from the Rangers board regarding his future as head coach, ending any speculation over his position at Ibrox. The German manager met with club officials yesterday and emerged with clear backing despite a turbulent season that saw the club finish second in the Scottish Premiership behind Celtic.

Captain James Tavernier will depart after 11 years at the club, marking the end of an era for Rangers. The right-back's departure represents a significant leadership void that Rohl acknowledged requires immediate attention. Multiple loan players will also leave as the club enters another summer transition period.

Rohl stated the board are aligned with his vision for the summer recruitment window, emphasizing the need for players who can establish authority within the squad. "We need new leaders, more leaders for the dressing room, to set our standards," he explained, calling the situation a "great opportunity" to reshape the team's character.

The summer rebuild will test whether Rohl can transform Rangers into genuine title contenders. With Celtic already crowned champions, the incoming recruitment drive represents the most critical phase of Rohl's tenure to date.
