So, Ferguson, who was appointed interim head coach back in February, has had quite the roller coaster ride in terms of results. He managed to snag his first victory at home against Aberdeen just last weekend. However, things are looking a bit shaky for him as it seems unlikely he will be sticking around after this weekend’s showdown with Hibernian.
Rumors have been flying left and right about who might take on the permanent coaching role, with Ancelotti’s name popping up recently. Ferguson, in a press conference leading up to the Rangers’ match against Dundee United, seemed pretty clueless about the whole situation. “I don’t really know much about him, to be honest,” he admitted. “I know he’s working as an assistant to his dad, who happens to be one of the top managers out there. It’s all just speculation at this point, you know? Ever since I stepped in, there’s been talk. But hey, that’s just how things roll up here in the west of Scotland. I’m just focusing on doing my job to the best of my ability and we’ll just have to wait and see where it lands us.”
Ferguson’s time at the helm of Rangers is coming to a close, with the Dundee United match marking his final game in charge at Ibrox. His short stint as head coach will wrap up with a face-off against Hibs at Easter Road this Saturday, boasting a 30 per cent win rate. It’s been a wild ride for Ferguson, but it looks like it’s about to come to an end. Not really sure why this matters, but that’s just the way the cookie crumbles in the world of football management.
