Chelsea legend Frank Lampard has emerged as the bookies favourite to become the new Rangers manager.
The 45-year-old was last in interim charge of the Stamford Bridge side last season after Graham Potter was sacked and now he has been tipped to take over from Michael Beale at Ibrox.

Kevin Muscat and AZ Alkmaar's Pascal Jansen are also linked with the role. A large amount of bets have caused the odds to be slashed on Lampard to as short as 2/1, according to Betfair and other sites.
Earlier today, he was 20/1. Oddschecker spokesperson Sam Eaton said: "There's been a huge influx of bets for Frank Lampard to take the Rangers job in the last hour.
"The Chelsea legend has accounted for 86 per cent of bets in that time."
Meanwhile, Preston North End boss Ryan Lowe has addressed reports linking him with the Rangers job.
And while the 45-year-old refused to rule himself out of the race for the role, he also made clear his full focus is on Preston North End.
He said: "I was aware of it [Rangers links} this morning actually on the way in, my lad told me. Again, I don't do social media, I don't know. But, I think I've been linked with many jobs since I've been a manager.
"I think, when your team is doing well and you're doing well, you're obviously going to get linked. But, I am the Preston North End manager and it's a privilege to manage this football club, working with Peter Ridsdale and the Hemmings family.
"Whether it is true or it's not true, I don't know. But, as far as I'm concerned, this football club and the fans have stuck by me."
