Rangers appoint Graeme Souness as player-manager
Former Liverpool and Scotland midfielder takes up role at Ibrox
Souness' arrival at Rangers heralded a near 15-year period of success at Ibrox
Graeme Souness has been appointed player-manager of Rangers, the club announced on Tuesday.
Souness, 42, has left Italian side Sampdoria to take up the role at Ibrox.
The former Liverpool and Scotland midfielder has signed a three-year contract with Rangers.
Souness will be unveiled to the media at a press conference at Ibrox Stadium on Wednesday.
Souness' appointment is a major coup for Rangers, who have been without a manager since the departure of Walter Smith in May.
Souness is a highly respected figure in the game and has a wealth of experience at both club and international level.
He is expected to make a significant impact at Rangers, who are looking to regain the Scottish Premier League title from Celtic.
