Steven Gerrard’s final starting XI during his time as Rangers manager has seen most of its members move on, with a few securing notable moves abroad, including three who are now playing in Turkey.

Players Who Stayed in Scotland
Several players from that team have remained in Scottish football, continuing to play key roles for Rangers or other Premiership sides. These players are maintaining their influence in the league and contributing consistently at club level.

Their transfers highlight the growing appeal of Turkey’s top division and the opportunities it offers for players looking to challenge themselves in a new environment. These players are adapting well and making an impact with their new clubs.
Players Abroad and in Other Leagues
Beyond Turkey, some former Rangers stars from the Gerrard era have found success in other European leagues or returned to England. Their careers demonstrate the varied paths footballers can take post-Rangers, moving between developing and established footballing environments.
