STEVEN DAVIS is adamant that Steven Gerrard's successor as Rangers boss will be inheriting a strong squad who are in a good place.
Gerrard departed Ibrox earlier this week with the Ibrox club currently top of the Scottish Premiership table.
Former Rangers midfielder Giovanni Van Bronckhorst has emerged as the favourite to take over at Ibrox, with the side four points clear of rivals Celtic.
“Whoever does come in is going to inherit a really strong squad and in a good position at this point in the season with a lot to play for,” Davis added. “The goals remain the same.”
Before returning to Glasgow, Davis has the small matter of a match against Italy to deal with as the European champions head to Belfast needing victory to be sure of their place at the Qatar World Cup.
During the build-up to the match there has been much focus on Davis’ future. He stands to win his 132nd cap in Monday’s match, but has said he will then take time to reflect over the winter.
“I’ve been asked about it quite regularly over the last few months,” he said. “I don’t know why people are trying to retire me. In all honesty, at this stage in my career I don’t think too far ahead.
“We’ve enough to contend with bringing the European champions here tomorrow. My full focus is on that, and it’s important to reflect after the campaign and see how we move forward…
“I just want to enjoy my football and get as much out of it as I can, whether that’s club football or internationals. I don’t look too far ahead.
“We’ve got the next games coming around in March with the international teams, and I certainly haven’t made any decision from my point of view.”
