Rangers hero Giovanni van Bronckhorst set to land new role in football

Former Rangers boss Giovanni van Bronckhorst could be set to be the new technical director of former club Feyenoord.

The ex-Ibrox boss has been without a club since he was sacked by Besiktas earlier this season after an ill-fated spell in Turkish football.

Van Bronckhorst started and ended his career at Feyenoord and later went on to manage the Rotterdam club and led them to the Eredivisie title before leaving in 2019.

After a spell managing in China, he took charge of Rangers and guided them to the Europa League Final in 2022 before being axed later that year.

Now he is in line to return to Feyenoord with current technical director Dennis te Kloese set to leave.

Feyenoord legend Jan Boskamp said: "If they call Gio, they're calling a big man.

"He's a Feyenoord man. If you look at those big teams in Europe, you see that those old players are often involved.

"It would be a perfect job for him."
