Scotland star McGregor is out of contract in the summer and looks set to sign a two-year deal with the club he quit in 2012.

McGregor had made his Rangers debut ten years earlier but it wasn’t until the 2006-07 season that he made the No.1 jersey his own.

Having signed a new four year deal at the end of that campaign, McGregor was instrumental in Gers’ glory run to the Uefa Cup Final in 2008.

In July 2011, McGregor signed a new six-year contract with Rangers, but became a free agent less than 12 months later when the club entered administration.

A spell with Besiktas in Turkey followed before he joined Hull City in a £1.5million move in July 2013.

Now he is locked in talks with Ibrox chiefs as he plots his return home.

And it’s understood the deal could be concluded this week.
