Arno Phillips & Yori Bosschart to follow Giovanni van Bronckhorst to Rangers
Arno Phillips and Yori Bosschart are set to follow Giovanni van Bronckhorst to Ibrox this week and start roles with Rangers.
Phillips is a renowned physio in Holland, with Bosschart set to leave his current role in the United Arab Emirates to move to Glasgow.
Keith Jackson shared the latest on the backroom staff after it was shared that Roy Makaay would be alongside the new boss as his assistant.
Writing for the Daily Record last night, Jackson shared the latest on the backroom staff expected at Ibrox.
“Van Bronckhorst is keen to have his own entourage assembled in time for his first day at the club’s Auchenhowie HQ and we understand he has already lured two further key members of staff,” they wrote.
“Renowned physiotherapist Arno Phillips – who has worked with a string of the biggest coaches in Dutch football – is believed to be ready to follow the 46-year-old to Ibrox.
“And data and performance analyst Yori Bosschart is also set to leave his current role with the United Arab Emirates to team up with Van Bronckhorst in Glasgow.”
Get them in.
Rangers will be looking to solve the backroom staff as soon as possible and get van Bronckhorst off to the right start.
Ross Wilson shared after the appointment that although not in the dugout for the semi-final clash with Hibs on Sunday, the new manager and Makaay will be in the stands watching.
With his unveiling said to be on Monday, his backroom staff will likely be concluded over the weekend but it may take longer for the likes of Bosschart to come in from the UAE.
Once they are all in, training will start on Tuesday and the journey will begin for van Bronckhorst and their new side.
With their first game in charge set to be against Sparta Prague, it will be a real baptism of fire, but at least it will be in front of a packed out Ibrox.
We already can’t wait.
