How Rangers fans in UK can watch Kevin Muscat manage Shanghai Port this week as appointment edges closer
Kevin Muscat is now the frontrunner to become the new Rangers manager.
Muscat won a domestic treble as a Rangers player, and he seems to have taken the lead in the race to the Ibrox dugout.
Muscat could wait until 22 November to take over at Rangers, as he wants to finish the current campaign with the Chinese side Shanghai Port.
If he is confirmed as the Gers’ new boss shortly, then Rangers supporters will be keen to get a glimpse of his side in action before he starts.
How Rangers fans can watch Kevin Muscat’s next match as Shanghai Port boss
Muscat is edging closer to the Rangers role, according to Four Lads, but he will see out the remainder of the campaign in China, as his side are fighting for the title.
Shanghai Port face Qingdao Hainiu on Friday 17 October at 11:00 am GMT, looking to extend their two-point lead at the top of the table.
Gers fans based in the UK can watch the contest on Bet365, if they want to see how Muscat‘s side performs and what he may bring to Auchenhowie from a tactical perspective.
Muscat will bring the right mentality to Rangers
If he is hired as the new manager, Muscat will bring the mentality that the Light Blues need in the dugout.
He is somebody who knows how to win, that has been evidenced by his playing career, particularly with the G51 outfit and Melbourne Victory and his managerial career.
His record since joining the Chinese side has been nothing short of phenomenal, as the Sofascore graphic above shows, with a total of 50 wins from 77 matches in charge and a total of 2.10 points per match.
He has won a total of 11 trophies as a player and eight as a manager, so he has the experience needed to handle the expectations that come with the Gers job.
He also knows what it is like to be a player in Govan, and the standards that are expected, so he should be able to turn things around after the disastrous Russell Martin era in Glasgow.
