Danny Rohl has been told winning is the only expectation at Rangers - and that is one of the reasons he has been brought to the club.

Rohl was confirmed as the new head coach at Ibrox this afternoon, signing a two-and-a-half-year deal which takes him up to the summer of 2028.

The German's only management job to date has been at Sheffield Wednesday, where he saved them from relegation after taking over a winless team before a respectable finish of 12th in the Championship.

Prior to that, the German has coached at RB Leipzig, Southampton, Bayern Munich and the German national team. And it is that work with clubs where there is an extrememly high level of demand which appealed to decision makers at Rangers.



Sporting director Kevin Thelwell said: "Danny has the qualities required to succeed here, allied with being an exceptional coach.

"He has worked in some of the most demanding football environments in the world, where winning is the only expectation, and we believe that background has prepared him for Rangers.

"His job will be to get the best out of the players and build a team that, first and foremost, wins, as we all target success this season."
