Luka Modric open to Rangers move! Real Madrid legend could follow Davide Ancelotti to Ibrox if Scottish giants appoint Carlo's son as new manager

FIFA Club World Cup

Real Madrid

Al Hilal

<p>According to the <a href="https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/articles/cvgv4xvqe00o" target="_blank"><em>BBC</em></a>,<em> </em>Rangers' search for a new manager has taken a significant step forward with Davide Ancelotti emerging as the clear frontrunner. The 35-year-old, who worked as assistant to his father Carlo at Real Madrid, held a key meeting in London with club officials last week. It’s understood that Ancelotti expressed a strong interest in taking the Ibrox job and provided detailed insight into his footballing vision.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>While speculation continues about who will take over the managerial reins at Rangers, the potential appointment of Ancelotti has sparked rumours of an audacious transfer involving Modric. The Croatian maestro, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/luka-modric-in-tears-last-ever-real-madrid-game-lucas-vazquez-consoles-midfielder/blt0b8a6b2daa1bab95" target="_blank">who is set to leave Real Madrid </a>this summer at the age of 39, has not yet made a decision on his next destination. Though no move is confirmed, sources close to the dressing room have indicated that <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/luka-modric-planned-retire-real-madrid-croatia-coach-shock-los-blancos-decision-release/bltb8b444682c82e87d" target="_blank">Modric did not rule out a switch</a> to Glasgow when asked about the possibility.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Despite the momentum building around Ancelotti's potential appointment, Rangers’ internal dynamics have added complexity to the situation. A pending ownership change has slowed the pace of decision-making, with both current and incoming figures involved in shaping the club’s future direction.</p><p>Current CEO Patrick Stewart is spearheading the managerial search, but he’s working alongside the expected new ownership group led by American businessman Andrew Cavenagh and the 49ers Enterprises Global Football Group. Kevin Thelwell, the new sporting director, is also believed to be playing a role in the process.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Time is becoming a crucial factor. Sources suggest that if a final agreement isn’t reached by the end of this week - or no later than the first week of June - Rangers risk losing Ancelotti altogether. The Italian coach is reportedly considering multiple offers, with at least three other clubs expressing firm interest in acquiring his services.</p>
