Scottish giants Rangers have parted company with their manager Paul Le Guen. Rangers David Murray reportedly said that both the parties agreed that it was in the best interests of the club that Le Guen leave Ibrox.
The move follows Le Guen’s bust off with Barry Ferguson, which resulted in the Frenchman stripping the medio of the captain’s armband. Ferguson, who was linked with a move back to England, is now expected to stay at Rangers.
Le Guen, who had reportedly signed a 3 year deal when he succeeded Alex Mcleish, was in charge for only 7 months, thereby making him the manager with the shortest reign in the history of Rangers. Le Guen was the first Roman Catholic to manage the club.
Before Rangers, Le Guen managed several clubs in his native France with a remarkable degree of success. He managed Stade Rennais for four years and managed to groom several future stars like Shabani Nonda and Diouf. He then managed Lyon and guided them to three French first League titles before resigning in 2005. He was succeeded by former Liverpool boss Gerard Houllier.
Ally McCoist is supposed to be the frontrunner to take over from him at Rangers.
