Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers look set to finish in second place in the Scottish Premiership table this season.

Harry Redknapp looks on before the Premier League match between Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United at Wembley Stadium on January 31, 2018 in London, England.

Harry Redknapp has told the Daily Record that he is convinced that Glasgow Rangers will put more pressure on Celtic next season.

Rangers look set to finish behind Celtic this term, with the Bhoys currently nine points ahead of Steven Gerrard’s men.

However, the Ibrox side have progressed since Gerrard took over.

And Redknapp believes that Rangers can end Celtic’s dominance over Scottish football in the coming years.

“He’s done well. He can’t do miracles, Stevie’s done what he could do and he’s improved Rangers this year big time,” Redknapp said.

“The future looks good for Rangers, I think, over the next few years. I’m sure about that.

“They’ll get stronger again next year and they’ll close the gap.”

Harry Redknapp keeps dry under an umbrella prior to the Premier League match between Crystal Palace and West Ham United at Selhurst Park on October 15, 2016 in London, England.

Rangers have won their last four matches in a row, and appear to be finishing the season strongly.

Gerrard’s men won 2-0 against Aberdeen on their last outing, to ensure that they will finish in second place this term.

Rangers are expected to invest heavily in their squad over the summer, as they look to push on further.

Rangers are next in action on Sunday when they take on Hibernian at Ibrox.
