Rangers eye Danny Röhl exit as Salzburg pushes for coach

Rangers and RB Salzburg have kept negotiations alive for Danny Röhl’s move to the Austrian capital club, but Ibrox will only approve the exit if compensation meets its demands. The 37‑year‑old, who joined Rangers last October, still has two years on his contract. A deal hinges on a clear financial package.

If the transfer succeeds, Derek McInnes will likely find a place on the shortlist, as Hearts’ boss stepped into second place last season. Steven Gerrard and Kevin Muscat also impressed Rangers last October but left talks early. McInnes’ recent promotion could bring a fresh approach to Ibrox’s coaching ranks.

Röhl arrived at Ibrox after a decade of coaching stints, including a Champions League‑winning spell at Bayern and a Championship‑saving tenure at Sheffield Wednesday. He guided Rangers to third place last season, a finish that kept the club in the title race. Salzburg’s interest signals a desire to replace Daniel Beichler with a proven European mind.

Meanwhile, Rangers have launched a summer rebuild under new CEO Jim Gillespie, adding Lawrence Shankland from Hearts on a two‑year deal after a 20‑goal season. Technical director Dan Purdy and consultant Stig Inge Bjørnebye are reshaping the squad, aiming to strengthen depth ahead of a competitive Scottish Premiership campaign.
