One of the first tasks for the 49ers Enterprises, if the takeover is successful, will be to appoint a new permanent manager. Rangers currently have Barry Ferguson in interim charge until the end of the campaign after parting ways with Philippe Clement.

The joint statement from Rangers and the 49ers Enterprises reads, “Rangers and its existing controlling shareholders are in productive conversations with the two lead members of the Consortium, Andrew Cavenagh and 49ers Enterprises Global Football Group, about the potential for the Consortium to acquire control of the club and to inject additional capital.”
Conclusion
The potential takeover and search for a new manager mark an exciting period for Rangers. With the 49ers Enterprises’ involvement, the club may be poised for significant changes and investments. The appointment of a new manager will be crucial in shaping the club’s future direction.
