Gio van Bronckhorst set to LEAVE Rangers as Ibrox club thrash out departure after nightmare run

dailyrecord.co.uk:

Gio van Bronckhorst is on the brink of leaving Rangers with the club in talks with the beleaguered boss over an exit – little more than a year after the Dutchman took charge.

The 47-year-old looked set to continue after the Ibrox board failed to act in the immediate aftermath of the 1-1 draw against St Mirren in the final fixture before the domestic break.

However, the club are now on the brink of ending van Bronckhorst's time at the helm which will trigger the hunt for their 18th permanent manager.

Pressure had been building on the former Feyenoord boss, who enjoyed a successful playing spell at Rangers under Dick Advocaat, due to the worst ever Champions League group stage record in history and Celtic building up a nine-point lead at the Premiership summit.
