Frank Lampard will NOT be the new manager of Rangers. Record Sport understands Ibrox chiefs have decided against appointing the 45-year-old amid growing opposition from the club’s already furious fan base.
Chief executive James Bisgrove remained in Glasgow this week while caretaker boss Steve Davis was left to preside over the disastrous Europa League defeat to Aris Limassol in Cyprus.
The Chelsea legend and former Blues manager had held talks to replace Michael Beale at Ibrox as revealed by Record Sport with Yokohama Marinos boss Kevin Muscat also holding a remote discussion over the vacant hot-seat.
But Bisgrove is now set to push through with the appointment process, with final stage interviews due to be held next week. Lampard will not be part of those discussions.
