NafisaI’ve reworked it to match the dramatic headline while keeping the confirmed facts accurate.
Rangers have officially confirmed another arrival at Ibrox, although this latest addition is one few supporters expected to dominate the headlines during the summer rebuild.
While much of the attention has centred around new players, transfer negotiations and Derek McInnes’ plans for the squad, the club have also been quietly strengthening key areas behind the scenes.
Success over the course of a demanding campaign is rarely built on player recruitment alone. Coaching appointments often prove just as important, especially when clubs are aiming to challenge for major honours both domestically and in Europe.
Rangers have already overseen several changes within their backroom staff this summer, and the latest announcement adds another familiar face to the setup.
With preparations for the new season gathering pace, the Light Blues have now confirmed a return that is sure to excite supporters.
Rangers have officially announced that club legend Allan McGregor has rejoined the club as lead goalkeeping coach.
The former Rangers goalkeeper returns to Ibrox after previously serving as part of Barry Ferguson’s interim coaching staff, with the Hall of Fame inductee now becoming a permanent member of Derek McInnes’ backroom team.
McGregor replaces Sal Bibbo, who recently departed for Coventry City, as Rangers continue reshaping their coaching structure ahead of the new campaign.
Confirming the appointment, Rangers released the following statement:
«”Former Rangers goalkeeper, and Hall of Fame inductee, Allan McGregor has joined the club as lead goalkeeping coach, replacing Sal Bibbo.»
«”Welcome back, Allan!”»
The appointment marks another significant move in McInnes’ rebuild following his arrival as Rangers manager.
There has already been extensive change behind the scenes at Ibrox. McInnes succeeded Danny Rohl and has assembled a trusted coaching team around him, bringing in Paul Sheerin, Alan Archibald, and Craig Clark as part of his new-look staff.
Meanwhile, Rangers have also seen several departures, with respected set-piece coach Scott Fry moving to Birmingham City, while Bibbo’s return to English football created the vacancy that McGregor will now fill.
Few figures understand the demands of Rangers quite like McGregor. Across two hugely successful spells as a player, he established himself as one of the greatest goalkeepers in the club’s history, winning multiple honours and producing countless memorable performances on the biggest stages.
His return ensures that experience, leadership and a winning mentality will once again be present at the Rangers Training Centre as the club prepares for another important season under McInnes.
