Rangers break their silence on Gerrard negotiations

Rangers have officially confirmed talks with Steven Gerrard and that an announcement over the situation is due ‘next week’.

The 37-year old Liverpool legend has been undergoing negotiations at Ibrox with regards a permanent seat in the manager’s chair as his first foray into senior coaching, but after days of media silence over the talks, Rangers finally revealed their hand today and confirmed the Champions League winner is heavily on the radar.

The statement through Sky said:

“We can confirm talks with Steven are at an advanced stage. There are still a few things to iron out, but we will be going onto further talks and hope to have an announcement next week.”

Of course, next week is technically tomorrow so you never know.

Gerrard certainly has his work cut out if he accepts the job following today’s debacle and it is one hell of a way to cut his teeth in management.
