Rangers have held talks with ex-Feyenoord boss Brian Priske about the managerial vacancy at Ibrox.
Priske is among a number of names under consideration, along with Steven Gerrard and Davide Ancelotti.
Russell Martin had also been sounded out but he is now expected to join Leicester City over the coming days.
A 48-year-old Dane who had previous spells with FC Midtjylland, Royal Antwerp and Sparta Prague, Priske was most recently in charge of Feyenoord.
He won 17 of his 33 games in charge in Rotterdam before being replaced by club legend Robin van Persie back in February.
