Rangers warned Steven Gerrard "wouldn't go back" before sacking Giovanni van Bronckhorst

Kenny Dalglish doesn't think that Steven Gerrard will return to Rangers following the sacking of Giovanni van Bronckhorst.

The Dutchman was given his marching orders on Monday morning after a disastrous Champions League campaign, where Rangers lost all six of their group games. They are also the worst team in the history of the competition's group stage after finishing with zero points and a goal difference of -20 - one more than Viktoria Plzen conceded this season and Dinamo Zagreb in 2011/12.

Van Bronckhorst, who lasted 368 days in charge, replaced Gerrard in November 2021 as the Liverpool legend decided to take the Aston Villa job. However, Gerrard was sacked after 11 months with the West Midlands side languishing just above the Premier League relegation zone.
