Steven Gerrard toasts Rangers Manager of the Year double as he secures SPFL award

Steven Gerrard has completed a dream double after being named SPFL Manager of the Year.

The Rangers gaffer - who will get his hands on the Scottish Premiership trophy on Saturday - adds the prize to his Scottish Football Writers’ top boss gong he won earlier this week.

And Gerrard could complete a treble with the Light Blues manager also in the running for the PFA Scotland Manager of the Year award along with David Martindale, Callum Davidson and John McGlynn.

The winner of that award will be announced on Sunday night - 24 hours after the former Liverpool and England captain gets his hands on his ultimate domestic prize.

Rangers welcome Aberdeen to Ibrox with the champions looking to complete an unbeaten league in their final league fixture and will be presented with the trophy after the game for the first time in a decade

But he insists the chase for glory won't stop ahead of next season.

He said: “We've already put pieces in place like Jack and Scott. We've managed to get them in early so they're ready for pre-season.

“We've got Nnamdi Ofoborh and Fashion Sakala coming in to join us, so we're well on our way in terms of trying to strengthen from a position of strength.

“For me, it’s always about fixing the roof when the sun is shining rather than waiting for problems.

“There will be more still to be added and, come the end of June, when we get back together again, we’ll be full of energy and ready to go again."
