Struggling Scottish Premiership giants Rangers on Monday appointed Danny Rohl as their new manager to replace the sacked Russell Martin.
The Glasgow club are sixth in the Premiership with nine points from eight games, 13 points behind leaders Hearts.
Rohl, 36, led Sheffield Wednesday to a 12th-place league finish in his only full season as a manager before leaving the troubled English Championship club in July.
He had previously worked as an assistant manager at RB Leipzig, Bayern Munich and the Germany national team.
Martin, who previously managed Southampton, was dismissed after just 17 matches in charge.
“It is a huge privilege to be taking on the role of head coach at such an incredible club, recognised around the world,” said Rohl.
“I know it has been a difficult start to the season, but there is still so much to play for in four competitions, and my staff and I will give it everything to reward the supporters and the club.”
Sporting director Kevin Thelwell described Rohl as an “exceptional coach”.
“He has worked in some of the most demanding football environments in the world, where winning is the only expectation, and we believe that background has prepared him for Rangers.”
