Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers are set to put Graeme Murty back in charge of their youth team.

Glasgow Rangers fans are divided over the news that Graeme Murty is set to return to Ibrox.

The Daily Record suggested this morning that Rangers were set to appoint Murty as their youth coach again, after his turbulent spell as first-team manager.

Murty took over from Pedro Caixinha at Ibrox last season, but seemed to lose control of the dressing room, and his time in charge did not work out as hoped.

There were fears that Murty would leave Rangers this summer, with Steven Gerrard taking the job as the Light Blues’ boss.

But Murty has reportedly agreed to step back into his old role of managing the youngsters.

And most Rangers fans are behind the idea of bringing Murty back to Ibrox.

Murty has now had two caretaker spells in charge at Rangers, and the hope is that he won’t be required to be promoted for a third time.

Gerrard started work at Rangers at the start of the month, with the Liverpool legend expected to make big changes in the coming weeks.
