Rangers are looking to appoint a new manager very soon having completed the interview process, according to Sky sources.

The Premiership club have spent the three weeks since Mark Warburton departed drawing up a blueprint for their new-look management structure.

It is understood a new director of football could be unveiled before the weekend with the club wanting to fill this vacancy first. Southampton director of recruitment Ross Wilson is believed to be in the frame.

Sky Sports News HQ also understands Gary Rowett met with the Rangers CEO and managing director on Tuesday. They discussed the role and the rebuilding job needed at the club in terms of Academy, scouting and coaching structure.

Rowett is one of a number of candidates under consideration. Norwich manager Alex Neil has also been backed to become the next permanent manager, alongside Alex McLeish.

Portuguese manager Pedro Caixinha and former Crystal Palace boss Alan Pardew are other potential candidates.
