King issues Rangers word of caution amid 'domiant force' vow
The former chairman and majority shareholder - who sold his stake to Andrew Cavenagh and the 49ers Enterprises consortium last week - is confident Rangers will be run with a "coherent plan" as he backed the new board to find success in Glasgow. However, King also wiped out any hopes of a wild spending spree upon arrival at the club as he insisted progress will be made in a "disciplined, stable manner". The former chairman remains convinced that the new majority owners are the right people to drive the club forward but urged a word of caution to supporters expecting a canter to the league title or guaranteed European qualification in the first year. Read more: 'I think I've said it before, and I'm going to say it again just so there's absolute clarity,' King said to The Rangers Review. 'I would not be introducing Andrew and the 49ers if I did not believe they were the right people to take the club forward. I would regard that as a failure by me in terms of my judgment as well. I really do believe they are the right people to take the club forward. 'Where I would caution is, they're going to do it in a disciplined, stable manner. So, if the supporters have got a sense that all of a sudden they're going to come in and spend vast amounts of money and you're going to have a team that runs away with the league next year and qualifies for Europe, then I think that's over-ambitious. 'I think what we should start seeing is a coherent plan. I think you should expect to see better communication with supporters, where people are aware of what the plan is, what's happening. It won't be like a black hole from an information point of view. 'And they are coming in with a commitment not to win a league title, but to make Rangers the dominant force in Scotland. That is what this project is about. It's not about winning one or two titles. It's about the next ten, 20 years and I think that's why I'm excited about it, because I think they are the right people.'

Davide Ancelotti to Rangers latest as further talks scheduled
It's understood Rangers will not appoint the new manager by the end of the week despite vast speculation over Steven Gerrard or Ancelotti taking over. Instead, as reported by The Rangers Review, further discussions will take place with Ancelotti over the position. Reports in Spain had suggested Ancelotti was close to committing himself to Rangers, but it's thought that is not accurate. The coach, son of Carlo Ancelotti, is highly-regarded at Rangers and a candidate to become the new manager but the process is not close to being finalised. Ancelotti will join his father at Brazil for the matches against Ecuador and Paraguay next month but reports he will stay on as a coach and reject the opportunity to make his own way as a manager are wide of the mark. It's expected Ancelotti will receive offers this summer from European clubs, but the highly-rated coach is thought to be excited by the project at Ibrox. Read more: On Instagram, Ancelotti teased a "new phase" as he confirmed his exit from Real Madrid. He posted: "After 4 years... it's time to say goodbye. "It's not easy to put into words what leaving Real Madrid means. This club is not just history, it's demand, it's greatness, it's a family. "I have been fortunate and honored to live it from the inside, to grow as a person and as a coach in a unique environment. "Thank you to the players for teaching me every day, to the staff for sharing so many hours of work and passion, and to all the people at the club who make possible what the world sees every week. "And thanks, of course, to the fans. Being part of Real Madrid means living with the pressure of always winning... and with the privilege of feeling your support all over the world. "Start a new phase for me. With excitement, with respect, and with the desire to apply everything I have learned here. Thank you Real Madrid. See you soon. 🤍"
