One of the early betting favorites to lead Rangers is Jesse Marsch
Jesse Marsch, the former manager of Leeds United, is one of the early favorites to succeed Michael Beale as Rangers’ new manager. The odds on the United States coach taking over at Ibrox are 7/1 with Paddy Power, with former Gers defender Kevin Muscat as the betting favorite.
Marsch, a two-time winner of the Austrian Bundesliga with RB Salzburg before spending a brief time with RB Leipzig, maintained Leeds in the top division for the 2021–2022 season. He was fired, nevertheless, following a disastrous 2022–23 season that saw Leeds drop to the Championship.
Although Marcelo Bielsa, a fellow former Leeds United manager, is listed by the bookmakers as a potential successor, he is a very unlikely choice considering that he recently accepted the Uruguayan manager’s position.
Marc Roca, a midfielder for Leeds United, says he’s delighted to be playing for Real Betis since joining the La Liga team in the summer. The 26-year-old remarked in an interview with Onda Cero’s Radioestadio that he had already adapted well to the team.
“I’m overjoyed. I’m enjoying it [at Real Betis], I’m having a wonderful time, he remarked. “We like to have great dreams, but we are aware that we must keep our feet on the ground. The season is incredibly rigorous and lengthy.
Despite joining the Elland Road team just a year ago, reports in Spain indicate Roca is aiming to make the switch to the La Liga team a permanent one.
