The boss is the frontrunner to take over from Michael Beale and could leave the J-League champions.
Kevin Muscat has stalled on signing a new contract in Japan in the hope of landing a dream return to Ibrox.
Muscat has been monitoring the situation from the Far East after being linked with the position when Beale was appointed 10 months ago. And he is now ready to answer the call if Rangers make an approach. It’s understood the Australian’s name has already made it onto a preliminary shortlist along with a number of other potential candidates.
But Muscat is already among the frontrunners and it’s believed the club are keen, at the very least, to hold exploratory talks with the 50-year-old. Muscat is currently in China preparing for an Asian Champions League clash with Shandong Taishan. Muscat was right hand man to Ange Postecoglou at Melbourne Victory before taking over from him when the former Celtic boss was headhunted to take charge of Australia’s national team. The pair then hooked up again when Muscat joined the coaching staff at the Socceroos and later replaced his mentor in Yokohama when Postecoglou left the post to take up the Parkhead hotseat in the summer of 2021. Another name that is being linked with Ibrox is former River Plate boss Marcelo Gallardo.
