Frank Lampard is not under consideration by Rangers for the vacant manager's job as they prepare to enter the final round of interviews from Monday onwards.
Yokohama F Marinos manager Kevin Muscat and ex-Monaco boss Philippe Clement are some of the names believed to be under consideration in Rangers' search for Michael Beale's replacement.
Sky Sports News understands various other options are also being analysed by the Gers board who are working through an evolving shortlist that has been in place for several months as part of the club's succession planning process.
Former Eintracht Frankfurt boss Oliver Glasner, Bodo Glimt's Kjetil Knutsen and AZ Alkmaar's Pascal Jansen have also been reportedly linked to the job.
However, one source in Holland has suggested a move for Jansen would be unlikely — with the Dutch side second in the Eredivisie.
Chief executive James Bisgrove — who missed Rangers' Europa League defeat in Cyprus to work on the search — has made initial contact with some candidates after Beale's sacking.
The club are focusing on assessing all options to get a correct long-term fit for the job rather than rushing an appointment.
