Danny Rohl’s departure from Rangers may not be the end of his connection with Ibrox.
Reports suggest the newly-appointed RB Salzburg boss is already planning a major recruitment drive and is hoping to reunite with as many as four of his former Rangers players this summer.
Rohl Planning Rangers Raid
After officially taking charge of RB Salzburg, Rohl has wasted little time identifying transfer targets as he looks to stamp his authority on the Austrian giants.
According to reports, the German coach is keen to bring four Rangers players to Salzburg, believing they already understand his tactical philosophy and could make an immediate impact.
The quartet are said to include players from different areas of the squad, with Rohl looking to strengthen his defence, midfield and goalkeeping options.
Reunion on the Cards
Rohl built strong relationships with several members of the Rangers squad during his time at Ibrox, and those connections could now play a significant role in Salzburg’s summer recruitment plans.
It’s understood that one of his priority targets is a key first-team player, with initial contact reportedly made as Salzburg assess the possibility of striking a deal.
Whether Rangers are prepared to negotiate remains to be seen.
Rangers Face Summer Challenge
The Scottish giants are already navigating a busy transfer window, and interest from Salzburg could complicate Derek McInnes’ plans for the season ahead.
Losing multiple first-team players to Rohl would force Rangers back into the market as they continue rebuilding the squad.
The Ibrox hierarchy are expected to resist approaches for several of their key performers unless significant offers arrive.
Compensation Already Agreed
Rangers received around £2 million in compensation after Rohl left for Salzburg despite having time remaining on his contract.
While the club accepted his departure, they will be hoping it doesn’t trigger an exodus of players to Austria.
The Bottom Line
Danny Rohl may have left Rangers, but his business with Ibrox might not be finished.
The RB Salzburg manager is reportedly attempting to bring four former players with him, setting up what could become one of the biggest transfer stories of the summer.
