Former Rangers midfielder Charlie Adam could be set for a return to Scotland, but this time as a player-manager.
The former Rangers, Blackpool and Liverpool player’s contract is set to expire at Stoke. And the 33-year-old has thrown his hat into the ring to take over at Dundee, according to the Daily Record.

Adam might’ve come through the ranks at Ibrox, but he is originally from Dundee. The midfielder played over 80 times for Rangers before eventually moving to Blackpool down south.
Captaining the side, his goals and leadership famously took the Seasiders to the Premier League. His form in England’s Premier competition earned him a move to Liverpool before Adam eventually moved on to Stoke. He’s been at the Britannia since 2012.
With his career entering its twilight, it appears the midfielder is looking to go into management. At the same time, it looks like he’s not ready to hang up his boots.

As much we enjoyed the big man’s time here, any Dens Park talk is good for another reason. It might finally put to bed any suggestion that Adam could be set for a return to Ibrox Stadium. [
