Rangers are likely to move for the Hearts manager, Derek McInnes, if Danny Röhl completes a move to RB Salzburg.
The Ibrox club and Salzburg are in talks over a deal for Röhl, who was appointed by Rangers last October.
The 37-year-old began his coaching career elsewhere in the RB stable, at Leipzig.
There is a rising sense in Glasgow that he will accept Salzburg’s overtures, with a switch likely to happen within days.
In that scenario, Rangers are expected to turn towards McInnes.
The former Rangers player guided Hearts to second place in Scotland’s Premiership this season, with the Edinburgh club losing out on what would have been their first title since 1960 on the final day of the season, after defeat at Celtic Park.
McInnes took over at Hearts after leaving Kilmarnock in the summer of 2025.
He was Scotland’s manager of the year within 12 months.
McInnes rejected the opportunity to manage Rangers in 2017, but it would be a surprise if the 54-year-old turned them down for a second time.
Steven Gerrard has also been linked with the Rangers post, having managed there before.
