Rangers are close to appointing Everton’s director of football Kevin Thelwell as their new sporting director.
The 51-year-old Englishman has already confirmed he is leaving the Premier League side this summer.
And after Rangers chief executive Patrick Stewart announced a root and branch review of all club operations earlier this season, Thelwell has been identified by the Scottish Premiership club to help implement some of the changes.
