Rangers interim academy chief appointment confirmed

David McCallum has been appointed as the interim chief of Rangers' academy. 

The Scottish Premiership club's accounts confirmed the move.

The role has been left vacant since the departure of Zeb Jacobs in the summer earlier this year.

A section of the accounts report reads: "The academy has been managed on an interim basis by David McCallum, since previous head of academy Zeb Jacobs left the club. 

"David has extensive experience of managing and coaching at a high level, within and outwith our academy. 

"As a previous academy director prior to joining Rangers, and coaching at youth international level, David has led our professional development phase, as well as taking on the role of interim manager of our first team for a spell in 2021."

Rangers reported record revenues but a significant year-on-year loss in their accounts.

The accounts released show the club has made a £17.2m loss. 

Interim chairman John Gilligan released a coinciding statement to the London Stock Exchange which reflected on the annual accounts.

Group revenue has increased though, to a record £88.3m and record total income of £94.2m.

On the transfers front, pre-player trading loss reduced to £2m – down from £10.5m in 2022/23.
