FORMER Celtic recruitment guru John Park has reportedly been appointed in a senior scouting role at Rangers.
Park, 64, spent almost ten-years in Glasgow previously between 2007 and 2016.
The scout was creditted with many of Celtic's successful signings including Victor Wanyama, Virgil van Dijk, Fraser Forster and Moussa Dembele.
He most recently worked at Blackburn Rovers.
However, according to The Athletic, Park has joined Rangers and has even started his job.
The report states that Rangers' current head of recruitment, Andy Scoulding, is heading to Tottenham. Park is not believed to be a direct replacement.
Park left Celtic to join Sunderland shortly after Brendan Rodgers' arrival at Parkhead.
Ross Wilson is said to have a long-term relationship with Park from his early days in the industry.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
