What fans are talking about the most: Steven Gerrard

Rangers fans are not only questioning what’s next for the club in the summer transfer window but also who can come in to lead their forward following the demise of Philippe Clement. Given he is the last manager to bring the Scottish title back to Ibrox, it’s therefore perhaps no surprise that Steven Gerrard is the leading search term by supporters hoping for a return to those heights.

Rangers fans’ most wanted transfer targets this summer: Steven Gerrard (as revealed by BigFatLinks)

  • Steven Gerrard: 48,400 searches (biggest rising trend)
  • Calvin Bassey: 9,680 searches 
  • Dele Alli: 8,400 searches 
  • Cedric Itten: 3,100 searches 

Not only do Rangers fan searches suggest that they are desperate for a reunion with Gerrard this summer, it would appear that they long for the return of former defender Calvin Bassey, now playing for Fulham across the border in the Premier League.

After his own return to action, albeit in Italy for Como, ex-Tottenham Hotspur star Dele Alli is a name that supporters have been chasing up with their search terms too ahead of Swiss striker Cedric Itten who himself has previously played for the Bears.

Nostalgia is the big ticket right now in the minds of Rangers fans Googling for what could come next!
