'I got pulled in different places' at Ibrox - Beale

, Scotland. The renowned coach, who has worked with some of the biggest names in football, is set to take on a new role as assistant to Rangers manager, Steven Gerrard. The move comes as a surprise to many, as Beale had previously turned down a similar offer last year in order to continue his work at Liverpool. However, it seems that the lure of working alongside Gerrard, his former colleague at Liverpool, was too strong to resist. Beale's appointment has been met with excitement from Rangers fans, who are hoping that his wealth of experience will help the team to secure their first league title in a decade. In particular, his expertise in youth development and tactical analysis are expected to be invaluable assets to the club. Of course, Beale will not be the only one responsible for Rangers' success this season. However, his arrival is certainly an indication of the club's ambition and determination to win. And with Beale on board, there is no doubt that Rangers will be a force to be reckoned with in the coming months.

Michael Beale recently stated that he was feeling pulled in too many directions prior to his termination from the Rangers, and is now excited to solely focus on his role as head coach for Sunderland.

After Tony Mowbray left, the Championship team hired a 43-year-old man from England. He signed a contract that lasts two and a half years.

Beale departed from Ibrox during the month of October.

He expressed to Sunderland's website that his desire is to become the coach of the team and not the manager of the entire football club.

In the month of April, Rangers said goodbye to their director of football, Ross Wilson, who went on to join Nottingham Forest. This left more responsibility on the shoulders of Beale in terms of bringing in new players during the summer.

Beale shared that he started working as a head coach at QPR and entered Rangers with the same position. However, there were several employees who resigned which caused him to be assigned in various areas.

What makes me feel at ease is how my position as head coach aligns with the club's values. Although I have ideas and opinions on other areas of the club, my primary focus is solely on coaching the team, rather than managing the entirety of the football club.

In November 2022, Beale left Queens Park Rangers to rejoin the Scottish Premiership club. He had formerly worked as an assistant to Steven Gerrard at Ibrox.

He achieved victory in 31 out of his total 43 games as a manager, but unfortunately lost his job after facing three losses in the first seven league matches of the season.

As he gets ready to manage a team currently in the seventh position of England's second division, Beale also stated: "I've spent five out of the past six years working with Rangers in Scotland. They're a huge team that I worked with in between my time with Aston Villa and QPR. I think I've gained a lot of knowledge and experience from my time in football."

As a coach, I prefer to be actively involved in the training and games. My expertise lies in on-field coaching, where I can work directly with the players. It's important for me to take charge of this area and be present on the pitch every day. My goal is to be a proactive leader for the team.
