Kenny Miller has admitted he always knew he would return to Rangers - even on the day he put pen to paper at Parkhead.
Speaking in the latest episode of the ‘Off the Record’ podcast, Miller lifts the lid on his controversial moves back and forward across the Old Firm divide and reveals for the first time how close he came to becoming the only player in history to play for both clubs in the same season. The striker left Ibrox in 2001 after one season under Dick Advocaat before heading for the other side of the city to sign for Gordon Strachan five years later - scoring his first goal as a Celtic player in an Old Firm showdown.
Miller signed for Rangers 18 months later after the late, great Walter Smith took over for a second stint at the helm. And the 43-year-old said: ”I just knew I would end up back there at some point. I knew it. It could have maybe happened a bit earlier but I waited - it was seven years I was away from the club - before I came back in 2008 under Walter. It was just something, I just knew. Even with what happened with me going to Celtic in 2006/07. I still had that belief that something is going to happen and I’ll find my way back there.”
