Sean Dyche has emerged as Steven Gerrard’s closest competitor in the race to become Rangers’ next permanent manager. The former Burnley boss is now priced at 6/4, having been slightly shortened from 11/4, signalling that punters are seeing his chances improve steadily.

Despite this, Steven Gerrard remains the clear favourite to take over at Ibrox, with odds of 5/4, reflecting his high profile and strong managerial reputation following his time at Rangers in previous seasons.

Sean Dyche was priced at 11/4 the last time the market was checked at a time when Steven Gerrard had been backed into the outright favourite. However, with Dyche now much closer in the betting market, it’s clear that the race for the Rangers managerial job is far from over.

Further down the market, former Melbourne Victory boss Kevin Muscat is next in line at 5/1, showing that his experience overseas and in coaching roles is attracting attention.

Derek McInnes, who has previously managed Aberdeen, has seen his odds shorten from 10/1 to 8/1, suggesting that interest in bringing in someone with domestic experience is growing.

Meanwhile, ex-Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez is priced at 9/1, offering a high-profile option, while German coach Danny Röhl is slightly behind at 10/1. Mark van Bommel, known for his playing and coaching career in Europe, also stands at 10/1, adding further international flair to the list of potential candidates.

Interestingly, former Rangers interim manager Barry Ferguson is priced at 14/1 to take over from Russell Martin, reflecting both his club history and the potential appeal of a homegrown option.

The Glasgow giants are currently eighth in the William Hill Premiership, making the managerial appointment a crucial decision as they look to stabilize their campaign and challenge at the top of Scottish football.

Spokesperson for William Hill, Lee Phelps, said: “Momentum is with Sean Dyche in what is shaping up to be a two-horse race to be named Rangers’ next permanent manager. Dyche has tightened to 6/4 from 5/2 and Steven Gerrard remains narrowly in front at 5/4, with both attracting interest from punters to take the vacancy with the William Hill Premiership strugglers.

“The liveliest moves outside the top two have been for club legend Barry Ferguson and former Wolves manager Gary O’Neil at double-figure prices; they’re our two worst results as of this morning.

“Meanwhile, support for Derek McInnes yesterday evening prompted a trim to 8/1 – he may be one to keep an eye on in the coming days.”
