Rangers have made their move to make Michael Beale their next manager.
The QPR boss has been heavily rumoured to be the main man Ibrox chiefs want to succeed Giovanni van Bronckhorst, who was sacked earlier this month after falling nine points behind Celtic in the Premiership title race. It's now reported by The Telegraph that Rangers have an 'official approach' to QPR and 'talks are understood to be progressing and Beale in pole position to take over (barring a late u-turn).'
It'll mark a return to Govan just 12 months on from leaving Glasgow for Beale, who worked as Steven Gerrard's assistant during his stint in charge at Ibrox. He also served as his number two at Aston Villa before becoming his own man at Loftus Road in the English Championship, where he has the London club firmly in the promotion play-off mix. But rumours of an exit have never been far away.
