Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers are expected to appoint Pedro Caixinha in the near future.
According to a report in the Daily Record, Glasgow Rangers next manager Pedro Caixinha had hoped to spend this entire week at Ibrox, preparing the Glasgow side’s players for the Old-Firm derby.
Rangers are set to take on Celtic on Sunday, and Caixinha had wanted to be in charge for the contest.
The Portuguese boss had known of Rangers’ interest in appointing him for some time.
However, last minute delays have caused complications in the deal.
Although Caixinha is still expected to take charge at Rangers, he is now likely to to be appointed after the weekend.
Graeme Murty, who has been in interim charge, will therefore be in the dugout as Rangers take on Celtic this weekend.
Rangers have already lost three Old-Firm derbies this season, with their Glasgow rivals dominating the contests.
Rangers are currently in third place in the Scottish Premiership table.
