Former Rangers keeper Neil Alexander is closing in on a return to the Scottish Premiership, according to a report.
The Daily Record claim the ex-Hearts and Scotland international is set to take up the role of goalkeeping coach at Motherwell as Steven Hammell adds to his backroom team after landing the top job at Fir Park.
Alexander held a similar position at league rivals Dundee United but left abruptly last season. Now, he is set for a fresh challenge in Lanarkshire and will get down to work with the likes of Liam Kelly and Aston Oxborough. Scott Fox had been taking the goalkeeping duties but he left on a deadline day loan to Queen of the South. New boss Hammell has got off to a solid start in the Motherwell dugout with his troops sitting fifth in the league standings on ten points and through to the Premier Sports Cup quarter-final stage.
