McCulloch coaching role

Further to the news Lee McCulloch
has been seemingly earmarked for a coaching role at Ibrox are more specifics regarding
the position he may be getting offered.

McCulloch, 36, has been
conspicuously quiet in the press in recent months, with the widely-held notion
that he would be released from his playing contract come the end of the season.

Of course, that is what
transpired.

However, news broke recently of
his potential return in a coaching capacity, and it is understood this role
would be within the youth setup.

Ian Durrant is already coach of
the U20s, with Billy Kirkwood in charge of the U17s. So it is unclear which
portion of the youth academy system McCulloch is being groomed for, but it is
certainly notable to point out any position he would take at the Club is extremely unlikely
to be in senior management.

There remains the outside chance
of a u-turn to the Kilmarnock post offered by
Gary Locke, however, and nothing is signed or sealed regarding any direction
McCulloch will take.
