Danny Rohl has left Rangers after just eight months in charge to become Red Bull Salzburg’s head coach – with the club saying news of his replacement “will follow in due course”.<\/b><\/p>\n

Hearts head coach Derek McInnes is widely expected to be the German’s successor as Rangers ready themselves to appoint a third boss in 12 months. <\/p>\n

Rohl, 37, replaced Russell Martin in October and steered Rangers into a three-way title fight, but a post-split collapse yielded a third-place finish behind Celtic and Hearts as the Ibrox club ended the campaign without silverware.<\/p>\n

Chairman Andrew Cavenagh publicly backed Rohl<\/a> at the end of the season, but the German now returns to the Red Bull stable, having begun his coaching career at Leipzig under Ralph Hasenhuttl.<\/p>\n

“I’d like to thank Danny for his service and commitment to Rangers,” Cavenagh said.<\/p>\n

“He and his staff put in a significant amount of hard work during his time in charge, which we are greatly appreciative of. <\/p>\n

“We wish them the best of luck moving forward.”<\/p>\n

Rohl, who had two years left on his deal, departs to take over a Salzburg side that came third in Austria last season – the club’s lowest finish in two decades – and will enter the Europa League at the third qualifying round, the same stage as Rangers.<\/p>\n

Daniel Beichler was sacked as Salzburg boss last month after just 14 games.<\/p>\n

Rohl joined Hasenhuttl at Southampton in 2018, then moved to Bayern Munich as assistant to Hansi Flick and helped the club win the Bundesliga. He was then appointed Sheffield Wednesday manager in 2023.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
