Cyriel Dessers Drops Bombshell Claim About Rangers’ DNA, Sparking Speculation on Two Key Manager Replacements for Barry Ferguson
There is no clear frontrunner to replace Philippe Clement as manager of Rangers, with Barry Ferguson currently holding the position on an interim basis. The decision on who will take over is expected to be influenced by the upcoming San Francisco 49ers takeover, which could play a key role in the club’s future direction. Additionally, Kevin Thelwell’s appointment as sporting director adds another layer of importance to the managerial decision, given his experience in hiring and firing.
Despite recent struggles, Cyriel Dessers has voiced his support for Ferguson, pointing to his ability to unite the team during a challenging period. Dessers emphasized that Ferguson’s deep understanding of the club’s DNA and his connection with the fans are significant advantages. Ferguson’s experience and leadership have been crucial in stabilizing the team, even though consistency has remained an ongoing issue. However, Dessers also acknowledged that while Ferguson’s knowledge of Rangers is a big positive, other potential candidates like Steven Gerrard and Kevin Muscat—both with strong ties to the club—could also be considered for the role.
