Pedro Caixinha handed post Rangers career lifeline as big spending Red Bull Bragantino recruit former Ibrox boss

Former Rangers manager Pedro Caixinha has been appointed as the new manager of Red Bull Bragantino - just three months after resigning from his previous job in Argentina.

The 52-year old is back in management after losing his job with Argentine side Talleres, who he had led to the last 16 of the Copa Libertadores for the first time in their history. However, despite his team's good showing in South America's prestigious competition, Caixinha was relived of his duties in September having won just three of his 16 matches in charge.

His time in Argentina got off to a bizarre start when he sported the team's strip at the press conference unveiling his appointment, and also claimed that he was the club's biggest fan. It was the fourth time he had been sacked in five years, having also lost his job with Al Shabab in Saudi Arabia and both Santos Laguna and Cruz Azul in Mexico.
