Van Bronckhorst on three-man Rangers shortlist

Former Rangers defender Giovanni van Bronckhorst is one of three final candidates on a shortlist to replace Steven Gerrard as manager at Ibrox.

Van Bronckhorst, who held “positive” talks with the club in London on Saturday, is still among those sporting director Ross Wilson is considering.

Sky Sports News has been told the talks with Van Bronckhorst were focused on the short and long-term strategy of the club and although contract terms were not discussed, it is believed the Dutchman’s values and ideas are aligned with Rangers.

The Scottish Premiership champions are very pleased and impressed with their shortlist and will hold further talks on Monday.

Former Rangers manager and striker Ally McCoist says there is ‘no rush’ to appoint Steven Gerrard’s successor as he assesses Van Bronckhorst’s credentials

That shortlist does not include Frank Lampard, who has been out of management since his sacking by Chelsea last January.

David McCallum, Brian Gilmour, Jermain Defoe and Colin Stewart have been placed in charge of the first team while the recruitment process continues.

Despite a busy period of matches coming up, including a League Cup semi-final against Hibernian, Europa League tie against Sparta Prague and key away matches in the Premiership, the club are focused on getting the right fit rather than rushing a process which began on Thursday following Gerrard’s move to Aston Villa.

Former Rangers forward Kenny Miller says Van Bronckhorst is a fine candidate to replace Steven Gerrard as manager at Ibrox – but added that the Dutchman is just one of a number of viable contenders

Van Bronckhorst played for Rangers between 1998 and 2001, winning five trophies, including two league titles, before spells at some of Europe’s elite clubs such as Arsenal and Barcelona.

After hanging up his boots at Feyenoord in 2010, the 46-year-old went on to join the coaching set-up under Ronald Koeman at the Dutch club, before taking full control in 2015.

He led Feyenoord to KNVB Cup success in his first full season in charge, before sealing the Eredivisie title the year after – the club’s first in 18 years.

Van Bronckhorst went on to join Chinese Super League club Guangzhou City, where, after finishing 11th, he quit to return to his family.

It is understood that after a spell out of the game, he is now keen on a return to management.

NHL exec Colin Campbell explains league’s schedule goals in Canada

NHL senior executive vice president Colin Campbell says the league would like to try to preserve as many full-capacity home games as possible for Canadian fans, but acknowledges other factors are at play in redoing the schedule during the current COVID-19 surge. “You’d like to give the fans the opportunity to go to as many games as they can. They’ve already been shortchanged in the last year and a half … shortchanged completely watching hockey here in Canada,” Campbell said in an interview on the Real Kyper and Bourne show on Sportsnet 590 The Fan on Friday. “It’s a rite of passage to watch the world juniors this time of year for all young kids.

We’re trying to save as much as we can and delay it.” The NHL postponed nine more games on Friday because of arena capacity issues in Canada — with teams being allowed anywhere from zero fans (Montreal Canadiens) to 50 per cent capacity (Calgary Flames, Edmonton Oilers, Vancouver Can...
