Giovanni van Bronckhorst is closing in on an agreement of a deal in principle to become the new Rangers manager.
The former Rangers full-back is on the verge of sealing a return to Ibrox to succeed Steven Gerrard, who left to return to the Premier League to manage Aston Villa.
Rangers are understood to be very pleased with developments after a thorough process led by sporting director Ross Wilson, with a host of strong candidates on their shortlist.
Reports indicate Van Bronckhorst was allegedly spotted in London on Saturday, where he held positive talks with the Rangers hierarchy, before flying back to the Netherlands that evening.
David McCallum, Brian Gilmour, Jermain Defoe and Colin Stewart are currently in charge of the first team and could lead the side out in Sunday's League Cup semi-final against Hibernian, before the Dutchman takes to the dugout.
Following that tie Rangers will play hosts to Sparta Prague in the Europa League at Ibrox before key away matches in the league at Livingston and Hibernian.
The Scottish Premiership champions' key goal was to make the right appointment for the future of the club, with Champions League qualification all but guaranteed if they retain their title this season.
Rangers currently sit top of the Scottish Premiership after 13 matches, four points ahead of rivals Celtic in second.
