Rangers have appointed Giovanni van Bronckhorst as manager.
Van Bronckhorst has signed a three-and-a-half-year deal, Sky Sports News has been told, taking him up until the summer of 2025.
The former Rangers, Arsenal and Barcelona defender returns to Ibrox, subject to receipt of a work permit, to succeed Steven Gerrard, who left to manage Premier League side Aston Villa.
His first game in charge will be Thursday's Europa League game against Sparta Prague.
Rangers are four points clear at the top of the Scottish Premiership, still in the hunt for qualification from their Europa League group and face Hibernian in the League Cup semi-final on Sunday.
"I am absolutely delighted to be returning to Rangers as the club's new manager," said Van Bronckhorst, who will be presented on Monday.
"I feel so lucky to be going to work with a squad which is in a great position on all fronts and largely has that experience of being winners.
"I look forward to carrying on and enhancing the work that has been done already alongside Ross Wilson and the board of the club, and I'm grateful for the chance to work again at this huge club.
"I cannot wait to meet the club's incredible supporters again and begin this new era for us all." (Sky Sports)
