STUART McCall has agreed terms to take over as Bradford City manager and could be confirmed this weekend.
The former Motherwell and Rangers boss currently has a role as an assistant to Gordon Strachan with Scotland, but will give it up to return to club management.
BBC Scotland have reported that the 52-year-old has agreed a deal to return to the club he led between 2007 and 2010.

The League One outfit lost manager Phil Parkinson to Bolton Wanderers last week and should announce McCall's arrival by this weekend.
The former Scotland international took charge of Rangers on a short-term basis in March 2015, but Mark Warburton was preferred to him for the permanent position last summer.
McCall played for Bradford in two spells during his playing career and currently works alongside current Motherwell manager Mark McGhee as part of Strachan's Scotland staff.
