Danny Rohl Faces Family Challenges During Rangers Pursuit

Danny Rohl has been building his coaching career in the UK while his family remains in Germany. He led Rangers after a spell in charge of Sheffield Wednesday in England.

Family setup and travel

Rohl’s wife and two sons live in Germany. The boys are aged six and 12 and still attend school there.

He has visited them only four or five times a year since autumn 2023. Those trips usually fall at Christmas, during February school holidays, and at Easter.

The family chose a consistent home base so the children do not change schools often. Rohl said that stability for the boys was a priority.

Daily life and small comforts

Rohl says his role is a significant challenge for the family. He can, however, move around his working city without much recognition.

That freedom lets him dine out and attend local events. He also enjoys accompanying his sons to their football matches when he can.

The children have reacted positively to his profile. They are proud he appears as a manager in the FIFA video game.

Career context

Rohl has been based in the UK for his last two jobs. He took charge of the Ibrox side and previously managed Sheffield Wednesday.

During his Rangers pursuit, Danny Rohl faces family challenges as he balances work commitments and long-distance family life.

Next fixture

Rangers travel to Falkirk next. They will face John McGlynn’s team at Falkirk Stadium.

The sides have drawn their last two meetings. Kick-off is scheduled for 12 pm on Sunday afternoon.
