Kevin Muscat confirmed as entering contract discussions with Rangers last night according to three separate outlets. One of these sources has nailed every managerial twist at Ibrox this year so this feels genuine. It finally looks like the breakthrough fans have waited for and if all goes well, Muscat could soon be announced by Rangers. Kevin Muscat Rangers contract talks have begun.
Contract negotiations are said to be advancing fast as Rangers push to land their top choice. Muscat’s representatives have already begun formal talks with the club and reports indicate the process is positive. It will come down to the finer details of salary, length, and control. The Australian is believed to be open to returning to Glasgow if the terms meet his expectations.
Rangers see Muscat as the man to restore authority and discipline to a fractured side. After weeks of speculation and confusion, this update provides clarity. The board appear united behind one clear candidate at last. Fans have grown tired of the chaos surrounding every managerial chase but this time there is a clear direction.
Shanghai Port remain a key part of the equation as Muscat is still under contract in China until the end of their season. Rangers must balance that reality with their tight financial limits. Negotiations with the Chinese club will run alongside the personal terms being discussed with Muscat. Rangers will respect Port’s position, and Muscat’s.
This part could take time. Shanghai Port won’t lose their manager before the league concludes in late November and the title is decided. However, the growing belief in Glasgow is that Muscat wants the Rangers job badly enough. That determination may help.
Rangers appear confident despite the challenges. Muscat’s track record in Asia has given them faith that he can succeed under pressure. His trophy record in Japan and Australia stands out in the eyes of the Rangers hierarchy who view him as a commanding figure ready to lead.
For once it feels like Rangers havesome control of a managerial process. The constant noise around other names has faded. Muscat’s credentials and connection with the club have given him the edge. His experience winning titles abroad has impressed decision-makers who see him as a ready-made fit.
If an agreement follows in the coming days, Rangers will finally have a proven leader ready to bring order to the squad. The support has waited long enough. With all parties now in discussion, this could move very quickly.
Rangers need a strong finish to this saga and Kevin Muscat might just deliver it amid Kevin Muscat Rangers contract talks.
