Derek McInnes Installed as Rangers Manager as Rapid Recruitment Drive Accelerates

Given final say over signings, McInnes has started an urgent rebuild aimed at returning Rangers to domestic success.

Overview

  • McInnes was unveiled at Ibrox on Wednesday and signed a three‑year contract to replace Danny Röhl.
  • The club has already completed Lawrence Shankland’s signing and is closing in on Ross McCrorie as a second addition.
  • Reports differ on McCrorie’s fee with some outlets citing about £1.5 million and others reporting roughly £900,000, and his deal is described as near final with a three‑year contract said to be agreed.
  • Rangers have formalised a new senior performance group with Stig Inge Bjornebye staying in the role and James Barrow joining the first‑team performance staff to support McInnes’ plans.
  • McInnes’ mandate is immediate domestic success so expect more defensive and midfield recruits this summer as the club prepares for pre‑season and European qualifiers.
